Geoff Grace Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 47 years old was the typical life expectancy in the US in 1900, but it sure seems too young of an age to die at now.

Tedster Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 God, that's scary. I'm 47. Brain aneurism. At least I hope it was quick. She could sing. I never particularly cared for her disco-tinged hit...but, she did have a great voice. Rest easy... "Cisco Kid, was a friend of mine" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod S Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Terrible news... unfortunately I went to a friend's funeral in the beginning of the year who passed away for the same reason. She was 27.

russrags Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 I worked on one of her album's in 1990. One song on the album "Unison" was recorded by Ciline Dion the next year. I'd actually pulled it out recently and listened to it. That's way too young. Gosh ... I'm 46 !!!!

Jeff Klopmeyer Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Holy crap. I'd never go to a doctor over anything but the most severe headache. 47 is ridiculously too young. Aneurisms are like that, though. Little time bombs in your brain, all but undetectable on their own. Frightening.

Duhduh Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 One of my best friends died from a brain aneurism at age 16. He had a really bad headache for a week and the doctor told him to take some Aspirin and go home. Things like that can happen to anyone at anytime at any age.

Super 8 Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Wow...that is too young to go. I read that her husband died just a few years ago as well. It doesn't sound like there were any kids in the picture. Sorry to hear the news. Super 8 Hear my stuff here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was a teenager, we lost a neighborhood boy to one. IIRC, he was just seven or eight years old. Nothing is guaranteed. This is another reminder to treasure life while we have it.
