Are there any BJ Thomas fans here?
Unfortunately, he passed away about a week ago. We had the privilege of seeing him several times and he is one awesome performer and human being. I was always surprised at how humble he was considering his Fame. He had the same wife since the 1960s and the last several years she traveled with him and he always introduced her.
I believe he passed away from lung cancer. Sad to see yet another one of our favorite musicians gone.

My best friend in school loved that song!
Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
