However, his cause of death remains a mystery.

Kiker’s sister Angela Evans said the family was “completely unprepared” to hear the news of the singer’s death.

She asked for help bringing his body from Colorado and said they are working to provide the “memorial that not only he, but anyone deserves.”

“You will live forever in our hearts. I miss you so,” wrote Evans on Facebook.

Kiker rocketed to fame after auditioning for American Idol Season 18 and bringing judge Katy Perry to tears with his rendition of Rascal Flatts’ Bless the Broken Road.

He was eliminated the following episode, but made a lasting impression after telling the judges he works as a garbage man.
