And most of them were REALLY HARD years.
She was probably over 200 years old if you factor in the affects of Ike.

What’s death but a cheap old fashioned notion?

Who needs a heart when a heart can stop pumpin’?

The trick......is to not accelerate the enevitable......... and more importantly, be right with God when he calls you home.

Loved her singing and stage presence, and her acting. She had it rough with Ike. RIP

“What’s Love Got To Do With It?” was part of the soundtrack to life in later 1984 when that song was on the pop charts. RIP.
Also liked that she did women’s pantyhose ads.

Appropriately, she performed “Hot Legs” on stage with Rod Stewart a few times. That song must have been written about her.
