Etta James, the "Matriarch of R&B", has passed away at age 73 of leukemia.

She will be sadly, sadly missed.

Thank you, Etta, for all of the many wonderful things you did, throughout your career, for the worlds of R&B, and music and society, in general. Your heart, soul and talent contributed greatly towards changing the heart of a nation in a time when change was so desperately needed.

I want to post this as a loving tribute to this lovely woman, along with my most heartfelt sympathies for her family and friends in this sad time.

Rest in peace, lovely Ms. Etta......
