Renowned Death Hag
Francis Ford Coppola lost a son, Giancarlo in a speedboat accident. He was decapitated when Ryan O'Neal's son, Griffin, was drunk driving the speedboat and drove it under a water skier's tow rope. The tow rope hit Giancarlo in the throat and because of the high speed the boat was moving at, severed his neck.

I tried Google and this is the closest I found, in a story about Ralph Stanley:Originally Posted by Jerseysucks
Stanley has had more than his share of both. In the early ’70s, several years after Carter’s death, Ralph Stanley found Roy Lee Centers, a singer he considered close to being his brother’s equal. One night after a festival near Jackson, Centers went to a party and got a ride home from a drunk he’d been in an argument with. The man reportedly drove Centers up a back road, told him, “I’m going to silence that beautiful voice forever,” and shot him in the mouth, killing the 29-year-old singer in front of Centers’s 10-year-old son.

Yes, he mentioned at the end of one of his shows. Really choked me up

It was the wrong Scaggs, it was Ricky Scaggs
Skaggs’ busy career suffered a setback when his son Andrew was shot in the mouth by a drug-crazed truck-driver, but returned in 1989 with two fine albums in the traditional mould: White Limozeen, which he produced for Dolly Parton, and his own Kentucky Thunder. 1991’s My Father’s Son was his most consistent album in years, but its poor sales led Columbia Records to drop him from their roster in 1992. He resurfaced on Atlantic Records, releasing two solid albums before expanding his horizons by forming his own Skaggs Family label at the end of the decade. His run of traditional recordings with his Kentucky Thunder band hit a peak in 2006 with the superb Instrumentals, which gave the artist his fourth Grammy Award for Best Bluegrass Album (Bluegrass Rules!, Ancient Tones and Brand New Strings had previously earned the accolade). The following year Skaggs collaborated with Bruce Hornsby on a highly enjoyable duo album, and also recorded an album with the Whites. He reunited with Kentucky Thunder in 2008 to record a collection of bluegrass classics from the late 40s.
Theres no info if the kid died or not nobody seems to know so I'm assuming he's still alive.

When you lose a parent you lose your past. When you lose a spouse you lose your present. When you lose a child you lose your future.

It was Marlon's.

How strange it must be to know that you were born with a dead twin. Seems like that would automatically qualify you as a death hag.

My mom worked with Michael, at the hotel my mom was housekeeper at, I remember her coming home one day and saying Michael passed away, at the time it wasn't out what happened, she remembers him being a sweet kid, I think he was 18 at the time, he had worked with her the summer before his death. Don't know if it's been mentioned but Danielle Steele the author, son died due to an accidental overdose he was nineteen

About the suicide of Marie Osmond's son is maybe because
he was gay and the Mormon faith looked down on it.
