    Not LADY T !?!?! I can't believe this happen the day after Christmas, least she had that moment with her family before she was taken from us.She's probably up there serenading with Rick James, I am so sorry for her children and her family for this lost.We are truly losing the great musicians of Motown.Favorite lyric: "I'm talkin' Square Biz to ya baby, Square Square biz, I'm talkin love....that is that is Square Biz" R.I.P.

    This woman was one of the baddest ladies to hit the mike. I love her and may she rest in peace. I just saw here in concert here in Los Angeles as I do every year. As she puts it in one of her songs. I don't want to come back no more". I will miss you but long live your music.
