Thank you my friend CW5 Jack Cardwell for sharing the unsurprising that the Queen of Soul" Aretha Louise Franklin has passed away on August 16, 2018.
Rest in peace Aretha Louise Franklin.
Prayers for peace, joy and comfort for grieving family members and friends as they mourn her passing.
She was a wonderful singer who we can listen to and watch thanks to her many recordings.

Aretha Franklin Performs ‘Rock Of Ages’ At The New Bethel Baptist Church: Exclusive | TIME
"Nearly 70 years ago a young girl named Aretha Franklin stood up to perform a gospel song in her father’s church. The soulful notes hit the walls with trembling potency. In 2016, for a live performance for TIME, Franklin returned to that church in Detroit, Michigan"
