Last Friday would have made "The Voice" sixty two (62) years old but her life was cut short thirteen years ago on February 11th 2012.

Seeing social media celebrate one of if not the greatest vocalist of all time was heartwarming especially seeing clips of the younger generation including small children listening to her music and watching her videos.
