- Scott McKenzie, best known for the 1967 anthem San Francisco (Be Sure to Wear Flowers in Your Hair), passed away in August 2012 at age 73. Multiple obituaries note he had been battling Guillain-Barré Syndrome and had been in and out of the hospital in the years prior. This is the most consistently documented recent event about him.[1][3][4]
- In the years surrounding his passing, coverage highlighted his collaboration history, including later work with the group and co-writing credits that surfaced in the late 1980s and 1990s, such as Kokomo, though sources differ on attribution details. These retrospective notes are common across major obituaries and entertainment roundups.[2][1]
