It´s been 10 years this month that you left this earth, yet your presence is still felt and always will be through your music. I listen to it just about every day! Thank you!

So sorry to hear about Maurices passing. As a kid growing up in the 70's Earth, Wind and Fire was a Awesome band. Such wonderful music.

September is my favorite song of all time. Maurice was such a magnetic, powerful and talented singer and performer. I´m really going to miss him especially at Earth Wind and Fire concerts. I send my condolences to his family and friends. RIP Maurice, we love and miss you so much.

What I love about your band is they always acknowledge the Lord and always give praise to you. I love them so much and I see the band at least twice a year. I love you and you will always be in my heart RIP Love Yahfah

Seriously sad day for Earth, Wind and Fire fans. September was my cheer me up song for several years. Rightfully so, a Hall of Famer. His impact on music is genuinely immeasurable. I´m so depressed, he was such an icon and inspiration. RIP Maurice. We miss you so much.
