Family members of singer Brad Delp of the classic rock band Boston said his death last week was a suicide.

The family has issued a statement through police in Concord but they gave no other details about his death.

Police, however, said that Delp poisoned himself with carbon monoxide with two charcoal grills he started inside a sealed bathroom.

"He was a man who gave all he had to give to everyone around him, whether family, friends, fans or strangers," the family said in the statement. "He gave as long as he could, as best he could, and he was very tired. We take comfort in knowing that he is now, at last, at peace."

Police have said Delp's fiancee, Pamela Sullivan, found him at his home on Friday.

Delp sang lead on such Boston hits as "More Than a Feeling," "Long Time," "Peace of Mind" and "Rock and Roll Band."
