THE FINAL MOMENT — What Did Maurice Gibb Whisper Before He Fell Forever? On January 12, 2003, the world of music was stunned by the sudden passing of Maurice Gibb, the quiet heartbeat of the Bee Gees. Known as the anchor who gave depth and balance to his brothers’ soaring voices, Maurice’s death at 53 sent shockwaves from Miami to London, Sydney, and beyond.
