Aretha Franklin

Like many people on this Earth, I never personally knew Ms. Aretha, but her music touched me deeply, with her soulful voice and fierce personality, she was more than just a singer. She was both a women's and a human rights activist, fighting for things a simple singer or pianist might not even care about. She was so strong but being a gal from the fifties I guess she had to be. That passion filled her life, from the moment she recorded her first gospel album, to all her many accomplishments that inspired millions. The life of Aretha Louise Franklin deeply affected everyone not just musicians or even soul enthusiasts, but the entire world. She might be gone, but the title "Queen of Soul" is a permanent, everlasting title, that can only be filled by Ms. Franklin's wails.

From the very first time I heard you perform, I loved you then and I love you still. Your singing to and with the angels now and you've blessed us here on earth forever with you're angelic voice to remember you by. But we'll all meet with you again, until then - love and rest in peace.

DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO ARETHA'S FAMILY. SHE WAS MY FAVORITE ARTIST.
