Subject: RE: Obit: Judith Durham, The Seekers (1943-2022)
I was very saddened to hear of Judith's passing.
I knew from various report's that she had been ill in recent years with different health issues.
I absolutely loved her singing. What a gorgeous voice.
There are so many folk artists who I listen to and big fans of. I never knew any well known artists personally.
Just like most people,I'm big fans of many, many folk singers and groups. I used to think, well if you had a chance to meet one singer in person, who do you actually feel you would feel comfortable talking to, not feel nervous or tongue-tied. So despite the many folk artists I love, have their albums, etc., Judith Durham just always struck me as someone who I would feel comfortable talking to and not intimated by, even though she is very famous. Just someone who came across as very down-to-earth and sweet and friendly. Not full of herself at all.

Rest in Peace, Judith Durham
