Aretha Franklin

I have been a fan of Aretha Franklin's since I was in high school, many years ago. Her songs have given me solace through many sad times, and joy in happy times. Natural Woman and Respect are powerful songs for women. I have danced to them, sang along with them, and cried with them. Aretha's  music means as much to me at 59 as it did at 17.
My thoughts and prayers go out to Aretha in her illness.  Aretha was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer,according to unconfirmed reports. She underwent surgery last week.
