Kevin Sharp died Saturday due to complications from cancer, his mother sadly confirmed.
The country singer was 43 years old.
Sharp was diagnosed with this disease as a teenager. But even though his treatment did not lead to a reoccurrence, the artist's mother says her son suffered later in life due to the effects of radiation and chemotherapy.
Sharp, best known for the track "Nobody Knows," traveled the country as a motivation speaker and passed away from "ongoing complications from past stomach surgeries and digestive issues," according to his official website.
Sharp was on the receiving end of the Make-A-Wish Foundation as a teenager and remained involved with the organization as as adult.
His site asks for donations to it in lieu of flowers or any other kind of gift.
