'Queen of Soul' Aretha Franklin Passes Away At Age 76 | NBC News
I had the pleasure of meeting her, a couple of times. She was an extremely kind, gentle person who seemed mostly unaffected by her fame and fortune. She was a real sweetheart - very down-to-earth. Rest in peace, Aretha.....you were absolutely one-of-a-kind.
Where'd you meet her at
A talented person. RIP.
Only one 👑 Queen
ARETHA
My tears are flowing 😥
Eyeswideopen Truth ima miss her 😭😭😭
Jose Moguel
Yea
Me too
Have a Blessed Day!
god me too! instantly and still.

Weep just for a moment, for she will be missed; then rejoice knowing that The Supreme being made Aretha's soul indestructible and imperishable so that it may live through myriads of lifetimes and worlds without end. We are eternal beings living through a physical form that will shed off in due time so that we may receive a new improved one infused with vitality, beauty and youth. God Loves us all unconditionally.
Sleep in peace Queen Re Re Arthea Franklin. Her voice was one of a kind.
Rest n peace

I’m literally in tears. Aretha Franklin was like an idol to me. I’ve always wanted to sing just like her. This saddens me so much! My sincerest condolences and prayers go out to her family. 🙏🏼😭❤️

ARETHA WE HAVE ALREADY HAVE LOST THE OTHER QUEEN WHITNEY AND MICHAEL BUT I THINK OUR WONDERFUL GOD ♥️ BROUGHT ALL THREE OF THEM ON THIS EARTH FOR A BIG PURPOSE AND WHEN THEY WAS DONE GOD TOLD THEM TO COME HOME. I WILL NEVER FORGET NONE OF THEM. I'M PROUD I WAS ALIVE TO WITNESS THE QUEEN OF SOUL AND MICHAEL,WHITNEY 🎶 MS. ARETHA MAY YOU RIP

Go troll somewhere else lowlife.
th-cam.com/video/nPsFVRq3iiQ/w-d-xo.html R.I.P Aretha Franklin
I'm in tears for the loss of this beautiful lady. I grew up listening to this ladies fantastic songs. Thank goodness we have her many many recording to listen to. R. I. P. sweet lady.
Carol Thomas were you literally tearing up?
I'm a metal headbanger, but even I can appreciate one of, if not the best soul singers of all-time! What an inspiration to millions or singers, millions of women, millions of African-Americans, and the billions who have enjoyed her music over the decades. Not sure how a person can have a greater and happier life than hers... well done... here's to when we can hear you leading the choir of angels in Heaven. RIP.
Charles Hepburn II beautiful post
Wow, that was masterfully written. Couldn't have said it better myself.
Charles Hepburn II very well put
What a profound post, sir. I surely hope she is resting in peace....
That's nice to say rock on metal head
RIP Miss Franklin! you left a great work! you will be with us forever xxxxxxx
I grow up listening to her
My heart is crushed right now. Thank you Aretha Franklin for giving us your contribution to everyone around the world that you gave me and my mom R.E.S.P.E.C.T for all the beautiful music. U will forever be missed
Hes will be missed r.e.s.p.c.t
RIP to the beautiful goddess. A legend.
Her voice and lyrics brought me to tears many times. RIP Ms Queen of Soul. ☆♡☆♡☆♡
Legend indeed. What a voice, and what a woman! May she Rest In Peace, with a singular legacy behind her...
Memory eternal.
She left a huge legacy for all to enjoy..
Jimbo Jones geez your post offers nothing but criticism.
You do understand that when people die...a memory eternal says volumes.
Didn't show too much Empathy towards Whitney Houston mom when Whitney died, just saying
Vera Wallace cissy wasn't as big as aretha. Dion is still going strong at what..77?
She is THE legend of all legends. Rest in peace, Queen Aretha.
Much RESPECT !!
The powers that be gave us ONE sun;
ONE moon and
ONE ARETHA!!
REST QUEEN!!👸🏾👸🏾👸🏾
Nia Imani-Diarra AMEN and AMEN
well said..
Rest in peace Queen of Soul. There will never be another like you.
jeff willis Never shes resting at her golden throne heaven have gained a truly angel
My grandma (who we all referred to as Mami) recently passed away from cancer and is in heaven now. With Aretha up above as well, I can see her groovin' to this wonderful woman's voice~
Wysper that is amazing
The very first time I heard Aretha Franklin on the radio, the song "Freeway Of Love" was hot on the charts in 1985. I grew up listening to her classics and loved her music ever since. There's just not enough words to describe her greatness. Still in shock...but at least now you've gone Home, and there's no more suffering... Long live The Queen Of Soul! We love and will miss you always!
Rest In Peace Ms Aretha Franklin, thank you for your beautiful music 🎼 & your golden voice. You will be missed but not forgotten, your music lives on forever. God bless you & your family.🙏🏽❤️
Good bye, Queen Franklin. Your legacy will live on for eternity!! Love you!!
She’s passed on. She’s gone back to God Almighty to stand before him and sing praises to him and his son Jesus. God bless you Queen. Thank you God for Aretha Franklin’s life.
doglover&sunshine25 amen queen of soul
@Nevin Reid ok
I still can’t get it through my mind that she passed away. I remember when I was in 3rd grade, I made a whole report about her. About the time I finished my project, she touched my heart so hard. She has taught me so much and I can’t believe she is gone. She will forever be missed. R.I.P The Queen of Soul.
I remember when i first saw her in Blues Brothers.. I was nine i thought she was the coolest soul singer. 38 years later that movie is the only thing that makes my Bonsaitrees grow...
We will miss her. Dynamic voice. I pray she rests in much peace. For those who know Jesus as Savior, that peace is promised. I pray anyone reading knows Him as Lord. Tomorrow is not promised. ~~
Bonsai Talk Yeah Blues Brothers is one of my all-time classic favorites next to Black Mama White mama with Pam Grier.
Mel L
In 1985, Aretha Franklin’s voice was officially declared a natural resource by Michigan state’s department of natural resources.
Bonsai Talk Lol
good riddance! and about time. she was always bitter and just hateful...for somebody with such God given talent she sure was bitter
An incredible voice,the only REAL DIVA I know,never will forget that legendary performance in the Blues Brothers movie,RIP LADY DIVA AND QUEEN OF SOUL
"Heroes get remembered, but legends never die. Follow your heart, kid, and you'll never go wrong."
Aretha is a legend, she will continue living through her music!
People who are famous because of their talent, be it the movies or singing, become a big part of our lives. When they pass away, it's as if we loose a family member or best friend. I loved the movie she was in with " The Blues Brother". My love and condolences to her family.
Can't stop crying! !
need a tissue baby cakes?
Tammy Crutchfield really...?
RIP Mrs Franklin i know u have made the transition to the greatest choir of all..Gods Choir may u continue to sing for eternity!
Jeffrey Weston Aretha Franklin is soul. God cradle her and we were blessed by her life.
R.I.P. to the Queen. You will never be forgotten👑❤️
RIP FAMILY MAY YOUR SOUL REST IN PEACE
R.I.P To the one and only Queen of Soul, you will be missed! MUCH RESPECT & LOVE!!!! I am so sad, but God knows you will live on in all our hearts!!! always and for ever! 👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑

My heart is so heavy. I'm one of the old kids who spent a lifetime moving to the sounds that great lady made. No one can fill her shoes. May God bless her family and all who know that we don't ever have to put our love for her in the past tense. The body is gone but that's not what we love about her. We love the heart and soul of who she is. And that part will live forever as shall our love for her.
Her gospel music played in my house everyday as a child.
I know every Gospel song she’s ever performed.
Rip!
john warter: Even if that is true.....do you really think now is the appropriate time to say it? Remember that you reap what you sow.
Areatha, you came, you saw, you conquer, there will never be anyone like you. Your songs had a soothing spirit to it. R.I.P.
john warter they say it is a rumor
I'm a millennial but i know who Aretha Franklin is, i came to know her when i was watching glee and then mercedes jones sang natural woman, i heard Celine Dion cover of it and decided to look for it on youtube; while looking, i saw that there was another Aretha Franklin cover by mercedes jones which was Ain't no way and it sounded so good, so i decided to look for Aretha Franklins original versions of her songs and then didn't even realized i was already listening to a playlist of her songs, chains of fools, spirit in the dark, i knew you were waiting for me, etc.
Her voice gave her songs life, like she's telling a story, like somehow you've been through it all, making it all sentimental.
R.I.P to the One and Only Queen of Soul, Miss Aretha Franklin.
R.I.P BEAUTIFUL LADY😓😓😓😓❤❤❤
From a little girl she was in our house always , my mother loved her and her music , I dont want nobody always sitting around me and my man we will miss her.Natural Woman!!!!!
R.E.S.P.E.C.T to the Queen of Soul. You will be deeply missed by all your true fans. You are the reason why I learned how to spelled 'respect'. My love goes out to her family and friends.

This is what soul is. Her voice had so much character. As soon as you hear the voice, you know it's Miss Franklin. Back then, brothas and sistas had effortless talents and gifts. They really had to know how to sing. She could do anything, vocally. Miss Franklin is undoubtedly one of the most decorated artists of all time. What an extraordinary career, journey and overall, life. R.I.P. Queen.
R.I.P. To the beautiful Queen Of Soul
I was so saddened to hear about the loss of the queen of soul! I’ve never heard a voice like hers and never will again. Her voice blew my mind. Rest in peace Aretha Franklin! You are the queen of soul and you forever have my respect!

Seen this one coming 3 or 4 years ago when it was quietly announced she had pancreatic cancer.....95% mortality rate within 5 years. Still hurts even knowing it was coming. A legend that will live on.
Great, great loss of a great GREAT woman. I loved that both my mom and I had Aretha records in our collections! How often does that happen? It really is a rare talent that can cross generations. My personal favourite Aretha track will always be "Freeway Of Love" because it was the first Aretha Franklin 45 I ever bought!
Aretha thank you for all your amazing , magnificient songs and the beautiful memories.RIP Aretha🙏🏻
Aretha Franklin rest in peace love you always
TAKE YOUR WINGS AND FLY HIGH GOD'S QUEEN AND MAY THE SONGS YOU SANG FOREVER RING IN OUR EARS AND SOOTHE OUR HEARTS. LOVE YOU FOREVER THE GREAT ARETHA FRANKLIN YOU WILL BE MISSED!!
