“I’m glad he’s not suffering anymore. There will never be anyone like him. I know he’s dancing somewhere,” Madonna wrote. Ciccone is survived by his father Silvio Ciccone, his siblings, nieces, nephews, cousins and husband Ray Thacker.

Madonna shared a tribute to her brother Christopher Ciccone after news of his death at age 63, noting that prior to his passing, the two had made amends following years of feuding.

The interior designer and dancer, who battled cancer, was his sister's creative consultant before they reportedly had a falling-out with the release of his 2008 book, 'Life With My Sister Madonna.'
