[Quote] “It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved mother, Helen Reddy, on the afternoon of September 29th 2020 in Los Angeles,” her children Traci Donat and Jordan Sommers said in a statement. “She was a wonderful Mother, Grandmother and a truly formidable woman. Our hearts are broken. But we take comfort in the knowledge that her voice will live on forever.”

Reddy or not?

Great voice, very unique and instantly identifiable when you heard it. Unique vocal phrasing. Another 70s icon gone.

When are the drooling morons like r2 going to figure out that search hasn't worked on DL for months?

Or are they unable to contribute anything but post the same handful of 15-year-old memes over and over?

It's not for me, I only get a thread about Reddy being diagnosed with dementia when I search. I'll try another browser.

When are drooling morons going to try the search function instead screaming "the search function doesn't work." Try it and you'll see three threads on this topic.

Thank you R9. You very calmly handed R8 his ass on a plate.

Oh no. Sad. “Summer of ‘71” was a great song about psychedelic drug use.

R8, take note of R13. I don't want to be a Pesky Patty, but I would like an apology.

I like her version of "Let's Go Up" better than The Boss, Miss Ross.'

Search works on Chrome but not Opera.

It's cute that r2 was being a cunt on purpose but now wants an apology because someone was a cunt to him. C'est la guerre, R2.

Seriously, though, the other threads didn't use "dead to me" and one didn't even use her name in the subject line so they're going to get overlooked. That's why you should actually LINK to the original thread instead of just spouting off with some catchphrase you learned back in 2003.

The original thread, of which I'm not the OP, is titled "Helen Reddy has PASSED AWAY". Helen Reddy was her name.

I guess she didn't understand the lyric. "Material Girl" is about turning the tables (I'm rich and now they're after me).

She also turned down "Don't it Make My Brown Eyes Blue" because her eyes weren't brown.

Her daughter Traci is married to Lucas Donat, son of Waltons actress Michael Learned. If that isn't a 70s celebrity offspring pairing I don't know what is. Lucas is also great-nephew of British actor Robert Donat, who won the Oscar in 1939 for Goodbye Mr. Chips, beating out Clark Gable for Gone With The Wind as well as Laurence Olivier.
