Prince left us too soon.
Shortly after the world learned of the singer’s death at age 57, a group of heartbroken fans made their way to his compound in Minnesota. While there’s only a few small groups gathered at the present moment, we expect to see large numbers later in the day.

For those already camped outside the icon’s home, the mood is grim at best. Many residents are seen crying while others leave flowers (purple, of course), in honor of his memory.
Take a look at some of the sad scenes (below):

So heartbreaking.
According to one fan, there’s a TWO MILE lineup just to get to Paisley Park AKA Prince’s home:
