KISS founding member Ace Frehley has died after suffering
injuries from a fall last month. He was 74.

Frehley's family confirmed his death to Fox News Digital.

"We are completely devastated and heartbroken. In his last
moments, we were fortunate enough to have been able to surround
him with loving, caring, peaceful words, thoughts, prayers and
intentions as he left this earth," the statement from his family
said.

"We cherish all of his finest memories, his laughter, and
celebrate his strengths and kindness that he bestowed upon
others. The magnitude of his passing is of epic proportions,
and beyond comprehension. Reflecting on all of his incredible
life achievements, Ace's memory will continue to live on
forever!"

Frehley passed away peacefully surrounded by family in Morristown,
New Jersey, following a recent fall at his home.

TMZ reported earlier on Thursday that Frehley was on life
support after suffering from a brain bleed from the fall a few
weeks ago. He had to cancel his tour dates and the outlet
reported that his condition had not improved.

On Sept. 25, Frehley's Instagram account shared a statement
saying he had a "minor fall" in his home and was taken to the
hospital.

"He is fine, but against his wishes, his doctor insists that
he refrain from travel at this time," the statement said.

He was forced to cancel his show at the Antelope Valley Fair
in Lancaster, California on Sept. 26.

"Please go to the fair to support his friends in Quiet Riot
and Vixen, and Ace looks forward to continuing on his tour and
finishing work on his next album, 'Origins Vol. 4,'" the
statement concluded.

Frehley was a founding member of KISS, alongside Gene Simmons,
Paul Stanley and Peter Criss. Frehley was a member of the group
from 1973 until he left in 1982. He then embarked on a solo
career.

His band, Frehley's Comet, played for four years from 1984
until 1988. He rejoined the group in 1996 and was a member
until 2002.
