Very talented but also a tortured soul. Seemed to love the Lord but had a lot of demons.

We all have our demons. I know I sure do. God Bless and keep his soul. Loved watching his performances, he was quite the entertainer.

“The cause of death was not known”
Oh - must be covid-19 then, we’ll just add him to the list. Oh he also said that “Mike would get it done” on his death bed.

Seriously - sad to see him go.

Two of my favorite Little Richard hits:

Miss Ann (1957)

True, Fine Mama (1958)

Howie Carr says that “flamboyant” in an obituary notice is newspaperese for “homosexual”. NTTAWWT.

Another death due to the Corona Chinese Italian Covid-19 virus.... Then again maybe it was the sex, drugs and rock 'n roll.

Well, I saw Uncle John with bald-head Sally
He saw Aunt Mary coming and he ducked back in the alley

Rat governors are all claiming that Little Richard was a citizen in their states so they can include him in ChiCom Flu death statistics.

Alert - Little Richard dead!

(Yeah, this is the guy my MIL didn’t want to emulate in naming her son after his father directly, afraid everyone would call him LR.)
