Sad indeed. Among his many great productions, Dorn produced a critically acclaimed album by the Neville Brothers back in 1981 ("Fiyo on the Bayou") which is on Rolling Stone Magazine's "Top 100 Albums of All Times" list. He followed that album with a solo EP by Aaron Neville ("Orchid in the Storm") which is (in my opinion) Aaron's best album ever.
