,,,,,,,,,Luther Vandross Dies at 54Friday, July 01, 2005

NEW YORK ” Grammy award winner Luther Vandross , whose deep, lush voice on hits like "Here and Now" and "Any Love" sold more than 25 million albums while providing the romantic backdrop for millions of couples worldwide, died Friday. He was 54.

Vandross died at 1:47 p.m. at the John F. Kennedy Medical Center in Edison, N.J., said hospital spokesman Rob Cavanaugh. Cavanaugh did not release the cause of death.

Since suffering a stroke in his Manhattan home on April 16, 2003, the R&B crooner stopped making public appearances ” but amazingly managed to continue his recording career. In 2004, he captured four Grammys as a sentimental favorite, including best song for the bittersweet "Dance With My Father."

Dance With My Father is a wonderful example of the beautiful legacy of song he left behind.

Often people are saddened by the death of those we have known but my take is a life of purpose is a life well spent. His songs spoke of love, what could be more purposeful than that ?

Thanks Luther..............Travel in love & peace
