Posted February 17, 201015 yr Brandon Flowers mother loses cancer fight Wednesday, February 17 2010, 19:25 GMT By Oli Simpson Rex Features The mother of Killers frontman Brandon Flowers has died at the age of 64. According to Gigwise, Jean Flowers passed away last Thursday, two years after being diagnosed with brain cancer. The announcement comes after the Las Vegas rockers scrapped a string of dates in Asia and Australia, which led to speculation that the band were planning to split. Flowers is yet to issue a statement confirming his mother's death. However, Spin claims that a memorial service was held in Las Vegas earlier this week, and that Jean was buried yesterday. The Killers are planning to continue their Australian tour later this week.

February 18, 201015 yr it's horrible losing someone you love to cancer as you can see them getting slowly weaker :( but maybe performing with the band will help him put his mind on something else for a while. lucky that they are having a break as this is a time to be with family.
February 18, 201015 yr Author yes i agree with that and im sure alot of energy over the coming mo0nths will go into writing songs that will be probably in many ways related to his mother either in her death or happier times they had.
