The bassist had suffered from a number of illnesses in recent years, and in 2016, his wife, Lana Rae Meisner, inadvertently shot and killed herself. According to court documents and remarks made during a 2015 hearing in which a judge ordered Randy Meisner to get continuous medical care, Meisner had been identified as having bipolar disorder and had serious alcohol problems.

The baby-faced Meisner joined Don Henley, Glenn Frey, and Bernie Leadon in the early 1970s to establish a classic Los Angeles band and one of the most well-known groups in history, earning the nickname “the sweetest man in the music business” from former bandmate Don Felder.

According to a statement from the Eagles, Randy “was an integral part of the Eagles. He was instrumental in the early success of the band.” “Take It to the Limit,” his hallmark song, showcases his incredible vocal range.”
