A musical session sadly missed

A rather sad story here.

Two or three months ago I happened to come into contact, through YouTube videos with a singer called Norlei Le Fay ("sussexangel" on YouTube). We discovered that we were both living in Sussex and talked about getting together to have a bit of a jam and perhaps a recording or two. She sent me a CD she'd made and I started to listen to some of the songs. Time passed and, what with one thing and another - principally busy family matters and getting a different computer and having to reinstate my email address book - I re-checked YouTube to get in contact with her yesterday.

Here's the video that brought us into contact: Feeling Good.

And here's the shock I got when I went to her channel yesterday: RIP

Norlei had told me that she was battling cancer, but was winning the fight. Not so. Luckily, I have her CD. Unluckily, we never had that session. Moral? Carpe diem - seize the day and the opportunity while you can.

RIP "sussexangel".

Sorry to hear about this Will.
She really would have enjoyed your Birthday Session.

What a lovely sultry voice she had. Amazing that she made may of those videos while taking treatment.

Morry you missed making music with her Will. Much like how I feel about Barry Finn's passing.
