    Known for His Famous Brother, Orrin Bolton Was a Force of His Own

    Orrin Bolton, Michael Bolton's older brother, has passed away. He was 72.

    On March 3, his son Oliver posted at Facebook:

    "Yesterday afternoon, my righteous father Orrin ben Helen Lila began his journey home to be close to The Most High, G-d."

    Bolton was Jewish.

    His friend Natalie Alie wrote on Jan. 21:

    "Orrin has been quietly battling for his health in Connecticut."

    She quoted Oliver:

    "Please pray for the recovery of my father  He was brought to the hospital last night."

    On March 3, she noted:

    "Orrin passed on. He is no longer in pain."

    It's unclear what condition Bolton suffered from.
