A terminally ill fan who Eminem granted his last dying wish which was to meet Eminem passed away Monday

afternoon, Eminem visited him over the weekend,  … just about 24 hours after he got to meet his favorite rapper.

17-year-old Gage Garmo — who was battling a rare type of bone cancer called Osteosarcoma — died the day after Eminem arranged a secret visit to Gage’s home Sunday … and spent an hour talking and hanging out with him.

Gage’s family said the visit really raised his spirits.

A candlelight vigil was held last night by friends and family at Rochester High School — where he’d been the football team’s manager.
