As of today shes still alive, although terminally ill with Leukemia, dementia and chronic kidney diesease.

 When she does pass, she will definitely give the Angels some serious competition singing. I love her voice

She was a performer that today's "divas" should pay more attention to.  Etta was classic, professional, and real.
