75.
Such a magical voice and presence (15 when she sang the two biggies). Such incredible records.
She "liked" a post of mine on Facebook ONCE, and I absolutely melted.

I apparently had a LOT of mutual friends with her on Facebook. One friend in particular was pretty close to her at one point, I think. Seems like nobody had anything bad to say about her.
The saddest thing for me is; it's weird to think of someone who had their biggest hit 60 years ago, but 75 seems awfully young, especially as vibrant as she seemed to be quite recently.
It's been a rough week.

A one-off. I really hope it was a mostly-happy life.
R.I.P.

Oh dear. A truly great vocalist - she could do the recitations as well as the tunes - who lit up my teens. Her solo album was the last piece of vinyl I bought. Younger than me, too. Gah. RIP

Yeah, she's every bit as cool and funny as you want her to be.
