The Bronx-born guitarist was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2014 and released his final album, “10,000 Volts,” in 2024 — a testament to his lifelong love of music.

Frehley once wrote, “I never set my sights low. I’ve always believed most people are ruined by the limitations they put on themselves.”

He is survived by his wife Jeanette, daughter Monique, and several siblings, nieces, and nephews, according to Variety.

A true rock original, Ace Frehley’s cosmic energy and electrifying legacy will live on — louder than ever. Don’t cry because he’s gone, smile because he was here.
