Whitney Houston - Tragic Loss

I met Whitney almost 20 years ago at a fundraiser. She was a beautiful, gracious human being. She held hands with her band and said a prayer before going on stage. Whitney is easily one of the greatest singers in the history of music. This is a tragic loss of a brilliant artist. My heart and prayers are with her family now and always. Michael

I have been a fan of her music for years. I'm about same age and grew up with her in some ways during her career. She will be missed very much.

I feel sad, yet good that she is in a better place, as I "know" there is another place after this. I posted her gospel and Dancing Song, to Remember Something happy and joyous! It is just like yesterday-- all the good moments, aren 't they?

She is "with" The Rock! In Jewish tradition, rocks are left, instead of flowers!

For fans reading this-- her dance song!

Comment by Ivana on February 12, 2012 at 8:21pm: Thank you, Michael, for your words. This is what I wanted to hear from you, just a few honest words that help me to deal with my sadness about the death of Whitney. She was really a genius and all of us will always love her. There are moments in my life I will always remember where I was and what I did while getting the sad message: death of Princess Diana, terror attack in New York on September 11, the first live concert of yours I attended, death of Michael Jackson, death of the former Czech president Vaclav Havel, death of Whitney Houston.......

Maybe, this is your face would look while singing for her the very last song. And she would listen to your voice in the heaven.
