Such sad news. He was a wonderful entertainer and seemed like a terrific person. Deepest sympathy to his wife and child as well as his CT mates. The big man will be greatly missed.

Can't edit my original post, but I made a typo in that precious man's name....

It should have read "George Donaldson"

That is very sad.{#emotions_dlg.crying} I wonder if he even knew he had high cholesterol or heart issues going on? Being so young, he may not have. Men are not too good at going to the doctors... as per my husband.... I bet if it had been caught sooner this would not have had to happened. He was such a pleasure to listen to and watch with the other great singers. He will be very missed.
