Bob Marley , in full Robert Nesta Marley (born February 6, 1945)
Died: May 11, 1981 (age 36 years), Jackson Memorial Hospital, Miami, FL
In July 1977, Marley was diagnosed with a type of malignant melanoma under his right great toe. Marley rejected his doctors' advice to have his toe amputated.
Marley's health deteriorated as his cancer had spread throughout his body.
After landing in Miami, Florida, he was taken to Cedars of Lebanon Hospital (later University of Miami Hospital) for immediate medical attention, where he died on 11 May 1981, aged 36, due to the spread of melanoma to his lungs and brain. His final words to his son Ziggy were: "On your way up, take me up. On your way down, don't let me down."
