ARETHA FRANKLIN'S STATEMENT: Regarding Luther Vandross & Obie Benson
July 5, 2005
I was truly saddened to hear about two very dear and old friends of mine, Luther Vandross and Obie Benson (Four Tops).
Luther, one of the premiere balladeers of all times and a dear friend and Obie Benson, one of the great showmen of all times and friend.
Of course they were both revered and loved by so many. They have both moved on up a little higher, beyond the reach of pain and suffering.
God Bless them both. I will truly miss them. -- Aretha Franklin
