Blind Items Revealed #15 - Reader Blind - Kindness
The charitable endeavors of this deceased diminutive singer in a loud genre were well known in his lifetime. All star benefits, charity singles, there is even an indoor event that bears his name that benefits research into the condition that ended his life.
He was known for three bands he was part of - The first was started by one member of an A+ group, the second was him replacing the original singer in an A++ band, and the third was a band that was under his own name.
One story not so well known about the singer had to due with the religion in which he was raised. While he disparaged it in interviews, behind the scenes he often worked with this very large charitable organization affiliated with the religion. One could often find a booth for them at his concerts which was funny considering the type of music he made.
Ronnie James Dio (Rainbow, Black Sabbath, Dio, Catholic Charities)
