Don Vito, Bam’s uncle who was a regular on Viva La Bam, collapsed in his home in 2015. The 59-year-old suffered liver and kidney failure due to years of hard partying and slipped into a coma.

Though he briefly woke up from the coma, Vito didn’t make it out alive. He passed away on November 15, 2015.
