She will be remembered as an American icon, and rightfully so.

At last
My love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song

Oh yeah yeah, at last
The skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clover
The night I looked at you

And I found a dream that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to press my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known

Oh yeah yeah, and you smile, you smile
Oh, and then the spell was cast
And here we are in Heaven
For you are mine at last

Not sure if we will play it at ours, cookie?

Wasn't she pissed at Beyonce for singing At Last for President Obama or something a few years back?

RIP

Didn't know much about her until the Beyonce role. The woman certainly had soul.

RIP.
