The father of La Calma frontman Leo Correa, known to many as “Big Show,” has passed away.  

According to a Facebook post by Correa, his father, Leonel Correa, Sr., died late Monday night at his home surrounded by family.

“He is finally with you my Lord…Take care of my Father, RIP Daddy I Love You.”
