Legendary Singer- Connie Francis has passed at age 87
* Legendary Singer- Connnie Francis has passed at age 87.
I met Connie something like 50 years ago- and had the pleasure of serving with her on the boards of two Rock N Roll oriented charities. GREAT SINGER and one of the nicest – kindest people I have ever met!
Just a quick side story, for years Connie would sit in the audience at the Boca Black Box in Boca Raton- checking out the “music talent” without any fanfare at all!
Jeff,
She was one of the greatest pop singers of all time.
By the way, did you see the news that Lou Christie passed away last week at age 83?
Andy Gold,
Just had a chance to read your comment. Connie was a very special lady!
As for Lou Christie – he was a terrific singer. 25 years ago, Lou flew down from NYC to Boca Raton and performed at my 50th birthday party. We had a ton of mutual friends and over the years we met many times.
Thanks for reading,
Jeff Eats
Saw Connie recently at KING POINT in the audience watching Peter Lemongello jr show.
She was a great singer.
