Terminally Ill Eminem Fan Passes Away, One Day After Meeting Him
Fox 2 News Headlines One of Eminem’s biggest fans, Gage Garmo, who was recently diagnosed with Osteosarcoma, got to meet his idol on Sunday (Jan. 11). And, sadly, last night (Jan 12) – just one day after Em’s visit – the Michigan teen passed away, succumbing to the rare bone disease. The rapper caught wind of Gage’s wish through the hashtag #GetGageGarmoToMeetEminem, which his family and friends put together, in efforts to make his dream come true. Following his passing, Gage’s friends and family paid tribute to him on Twitter. Read some of the heart-felt tweets below. RIP Gage.
#RIPGageGarmo you were a great cousin, brother, son, and friend. You're gone but you'll forever be in our hearts

I love the way Em didn't post pictures on IG or Twitter he just met Gage and made him the happiest person. Rest in peace. #RIPGageGarmo
