Many years ago....I remember my Mother and Father saying...OH!!! ...JO STAFFORD!!... she is our favorite female vocalist of all time!!
I was born to wonderful parents in 1959. I have only recently, in the last 6 years, began listening to Ms. Stafford's music. I now understand why Mom and Dad said what they did of her. In my sincerest opinion, I have never heard as beautiful a singing voice as hers in my life! I would like to say that if angels walk among us, then she was certainly...

When I was a little boy in 1944 I used to sit in my folks car listening to the car radio. I heard Jo Stafford and she made such an impression to me that even all these years I still hum "You Belong To Me". I was shocked to hear of her passing in 2008. What a beautiful voice.

Each year I listen to Ms Stafford's music, I love it more and more. What a sumptious, bell-clear voice she had, equally at ease with ballads and uptempo numbers. "You Belong to Me" is my favorite song ever, unequalled over 60 years after it hit number one in the States.

For the past 60 years I have had a copy of every song that Jo sang. The amazing thing about her enchanting and beautiful voice was that no matter how many times you listen to her sing the goose bumps are just as big as the first time.

What a beautiful woman, amazing singer, and devoted wife and mother. I was 40 when Jo passed at 90, and, despite our differences in generations and age, I've loved her remarkable, God-given gift since I first heard her. I will continue listening to her music, as well as that of Paul Weston, for the remainder of my days. If there is a Heaven -- and, I hope there is -- I'll look forward to meeting them both one day.
