I was not a fan at all, but it is often interesting to read what kind words people can write about someone who has departed. I did not know that she played instruments, for instance. In her obit last night I read that she spoke fluent German - which not everyone who comes here to work takes the trouble to do. Just because I did not like her music, it does not mean that I could not have liked her as a person. I had always thought of her as a disco diva, but now a portrait of a more substantial - and likeable person is emerging.
