Celebrated the very amazing talented , Singer life of a fabulous, beautiful, lovely lady Tina Turner one of the most dynamic singers of her generation. Tina Turner, electrified audiences in the 1960’s and 70’s. After a traumatic divorce forced her to leave the spotlight, she returned as the Queen of Rock in 1980s. Belting out hits like “Better Be Good to Me,” “What’s Love Got to Do With It” and her classic “Proud Mary” on tour, she broke records in ticket sales. In 1994, Tina retired to Switzerland with her second husband Erwin Bach, but she appeared at the opening of the Broadway show based on her life in 2019. My music doesn’t sound dated,” said Tina. “It’s still strong- like me.” I do remember back in the 80s when I was watching MTV I saw her video of “Private Dancer,” Typical Male,” “What’s Got To Do With It,” videos. Also, Tina’s legacy still lives on MTV Videos, I love the video of What’s Love Got To Do with, she is a fabulous and amazing dancer, and singer! Deepest Sympathy Condolences to the Family of Tina Turner Music Industry, her Friends along with her Fans. She is in a good place now singing to the angels, she has earned her angel wings. She will be missed, yeah, never be forgotten. Tina’s soul we’re still live on for eternity as her body departed back to eternity Heaven. Also, she took part with other singers in “We are The World” to raise money for USA For Africa. My thoughts, prayers are with you and your family

Oh Tina, I don't know where to begin. I have been one of your biggest fans since Private Dancer came out when I was 14. I went to see you in concert for the first time when I was 16, and it was unforgettable. Losing you hurts so deeply but I know you are in true paradise. I am so blessed that I lived during your lifetime to enjoy your terrific music, attend your unbelievable concerts, and witness your unconditional love for your fans. Thank you beautiful queen for everything. I love you forever and I will never forget you.

I have always loved Tina Turner since I was about 7 yrs. old (AL). I remember how much my family loved her music. With that being said....of course I grew up listening to her music and loving it all. She was always a beautiful and talented singer/entertainer to me and in the 80's & 90's and early 2000s she was even greater. She was in fact "SIMPLY THE BEST" and will be missed; but Never forgotten. May she Rest in PEACE. May God give COMFORT and PEACE to her family and friends. Love always ntk

To the family of Tina Turner:

My family and I would like to extend our deepest sympathy and condolences on the passing of one of the world's greatest entertainers who had the style and the grace of a true "lady" "What Love Got to do with It", "The Best", Nutbush City Limits" is just a few of her music R&B classics, that will be part of music history for all eternity. There is no doubt that Ms. Turner was loved by many and will be missed by all who knew her personally and professionally.

As the Turner family keep on this journey of life may you always keep treasured memories of her in your heart and may you find comfort in knowing that God knows your pain.

Respectfully,

Eminent global rock star Tina Turner was also rock's hottest dancing woman, who led the way on strong, high-energy stage performance that was at once sexy and independent, declaring female energy in its own right.

Tina was one of a kind. She reminds me of the Biblical woman, Abigail. Although beautiful and wealthy, Abigail had a balanced view of herself. To keep peace, she was willing to apologize for something that was not her fault. She handled a tense situation calmly and did so with tact, courage, and resourcefulness. Tina was a woman of grace and beauty.

Loved her so much! She was an icon among icons, and can never be replaced!! Her music was timeless, and there will never be another, Tina! She had the most beautiful legs of anyone on the planet bar none! I was lucky enough to see her perform in Greenville SC years ago and she put the performance of a lifetime that I will never forget and I’m so lucky I got to see her. She sang for over three hours for us. Rest in peace, beautiful angel! I hope you and Prince are up there, collaborating and singing to the angels!! The world has lost the queen of music, and we will never ever forget you or your music! Love you so much always!
