NEWS: Etta James Passed away at 72



 Soul singer Etta James, born Jamesetta Hawkins, has died after a 2 year battle with chronic leukemia. Etta will always be remembered for her powerful songs such as “At Last” and ‘Something’s got a hold on me’. Etta was rushed to hospital last month where she was placed on a breathing machine after having trouble breathing. It was during this time that her live-in doctor announced that Etta was terminally Ill and for her fans to pray that she would get well soon. Things seem to be looking up when she was discharged from the hospital earlier this month and was said to be resting at her home in in Riverside, California. However sadly she passed away today at the same hospital she had been released from just two weeks ago. Etta James leaves behind two sons and her husband.
Etta I absolutely love you and you are a legend that will never be forgotten...MuaH!
