It’s kind of mind boggling that two-thirds of the group LFO are no longer alive. Excuse me while I go listen to “The Girl on TV”. RIP Devin Lima https://t.co/x0E7cOmJOZ

Very sorry to hear about the passing of @devinlima from @TheRealLFO. Sending love & strength to @bradfischetti. I had the pleasure of doing their music video #GirlOnTv when I was a teenager & remember how nice all 3 were to everyone. [–] #DevinLima https://t.co/511fq9Bzd6
