    Wow, this is a shock. Still young and such a gifted singer. Most of the singers today can only wish to have the pipes that Teena had. She will truly be missed!

    Tina Marie was the epitome of soul. Very few R&B artists today can compete. Truly one of the greatest pop/soul singers of all time. RIP Tina.
