One of David Crosby‘s final messages on social media before his death is pretty telling. The founding member of The Byrds and Crosby, Stills & Nash died after a long illness, his wife, Jan Dance, told Variety on Thursday. He was 81.
Just a day before his death was announced, Crosby posted a message about heaven. “I heard the place is overrated….cloudy,” he wrote on Wednesday morning.
This was in response to a post shared by Twitter user @stiflersmomsays, which is a screenshot of a Google search for the phrase, “Can we go to heaven with tattoos?”
According to @stiflersmomsays, the top response reads, “People with tattoos will not go to heaven. People who drink alcohol will not go to heaven. People who eat too much pork will also not go to heaven. Short people will not go to heaven.”
