Robert Keith McFerrin Sr.

My Mom, Sylvia Olden Lee praised his fabulous voice and could not say enough about his singing! So, I join in with her in the hereafter so now she can accopany him on the piano and they will make glorious muic together!

As my mother is no longer here to do this I am doing this in her name. As such a fine musician and singer my mother could not cease from singing his praises due to his beautiful voice and artistic talent. Keep up the good work!!

My uncle Robert may you continue to rest in peace. I miss you dearly. You were my entertainment mentor. However more than that you were my uncle whom I spent so much time with. Love and miss you!!

I am excited to see this. My late husband William Grandvil Carter (1940-1993) was the piano accompanist and 5th singing voice when Bob McFerrin Sr. toured Europe as the California Jubilee Singers from 1964-1965. That was the turning point in Bill's career. He had proved himself as a musician and returned to UCLA to earn his bachelor's, master's and doctorate degrees after having walked out on a nearly complete degree in chemistry the previous year. I had the great honor of meeting Bob...

I miss you Daddy. I love you and think of you often. I know your watching over Major Moves!

Dear Brenda McFerrin,
My condolences to you on the loss of your father. I thought he was wonderful. He was my voice coach in the Spring of 1970 at Sacramento State College. Mangnificent talent. I remember how he would put his hand to his ear and mouth and listen to himself as he sang. Oh my God, he was so talented and had the most beautiful voice and was so kind and patient with us. A true master. best wishes,
Billy Cross
