The 18 Grammy-winning, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Presidential Medal of Freedom winning, 76 year old musical artist has passed away, surrounded by her loved ones. Her career has spanned over 6 decades, earned her a lot of awards and a lot of titles over time, including "the voice of the civil rights movement". She performed at Martin Luther King Jr.'s memorial as well as Jimmy Carter's, Bill Clinton's, & Barack Obama's inaugurations. The list of her accomplishments goes on and on.

My thoughts & prayers are with her family/friends, rest in peace Aretha Franklin.
