The biography on Jimmy Buffett's website has been updated to include the musician's cause of death, confirming that he had been diagnosed with Merkel cell skin cancer. The "Margaritaville" singer-songwriter battled cancer for four years before he died Friday at 76. ADVERTISEMENTAt least one of those destinations — the Margaritaville resort in Palm Springs — reportedly lowered its flag to half-staff this week in Buffett's honor, according to a photo on social media. "If anyone is curious the flag IS at half mast at Margaritaville Palm Springs," X user @ahasaka captioned the image of a lowered America flag by a pool. Another X user reported that a moment of silence was held for Buffett at the Margaritaville resort in Nassau, Bahamas, on Saturday.
