Cause of Death: Stroke
Filed under: R.I.P.
Authorities say that music legend Isaac Hayes died of a stroke in Memphis, TN on Sunday.
Paperwork filed by Hayes' family physician, Dr. David Kraus, lists the cause of death as a stroke.
However, it was also reported that no autopsy had been performed.
No official determination has been released by the medical examiner's office or filed with the Memphis health department, which issues death certificates.
Hayes' family members said the music man was under a doctor's care but did not give specifics.

RIP, Isaac
R.I.P. chef/Shaft

His voice will live on forever.
So SAD!!! RIP
RIP Isaac =)
Scientologists don't allow real autopsies to take place. They were a bit late getting their dear old founder L. Ron Hubbard from getting cut open — where real doctors found out he was doped on drugs. LRH was allowed to take drugs, but his $5/week followers aren't allowed to.
That being said, we will miss you terribly, Isaac Hayes. Maybe you should have cut back on the Scientology regimen of daily cups of olive oil, too!
RIP ISAAC/CHEF…
mmmhm,,, chocolate salty balls..
RIP Chef
RIP…I don't know where scien-creeptologist go in the after life…but where ever it is…they have some awesome music there today. Love to his family.
So sad. RIP, Isaac. You will be missed.

Obviously Scientology related as to why no autopsy because they would find weird crap in his system as opposed to medication he probably should have been taking for any illness he may have had.
RIP Issac
Oh my God – they killed Chef! You bastards!!! And in a sense, “they” did kill Isaac. “They” is the Church of Scientology, of which Hayes was a member. Hayes had a stroke in 2006, and members of Scientology are required to sign a form promising they will never seek psychiatric or mental assistance. But stroke rehabilitation involves the help of neurologists and often psychiatrists, not to mention psychotropic drugs - exactly the kind Scientology prohibits. So he did not receive the care he needed.
Above all else Scientology demands money. He had lost the rights to his songs in 1977 and they made him quit South Park, so the only source of income available was performing. They made him tour, and the shows were awful. Isaac was tossed in front of a keyboard, where he pretended to front his band. He spoke haltingly rather than sang, and they collected the money. And then he died. A sad end to a great man. You bastards, indeed.

Too much cocaine dude!!!!
Blame it on Scientology…RIP
No autopsy. Yeah, because the Scientologists are afraid the coroner will find that micro-chip that they implant in these 'followers'. I agree with everything Dave said. You bastards.
WHY DIDNT HE JUST SLAP ON A PROTECTION BEAM? ALL SCIENTOLOGISTS ARE IMMORTAL.
Impossible! He's a $cientologist! He can't have a stroke!
How dare he?
David Miscarriage must be pissed!
All hail Xenu and don't be so glib.
I have most of his albums on vinyl. I'm so glad I held onto them! $$$$$
RIP!
Sorry for His family's lost!!
