Andy Williams

* courtesy of Wikipedia

I just read that Andy Williams passed away last month at the ripe old age of 84, from bladder cancer.  To me and to his multitude of fans worldwide, he will forever be known as "Mr. Smooth," and his numerous hits, among them, Moon River, Days of Wine and Roses, Love is a Many Splendored Thing, Theme from the Godfather (Speak Softly Love), Theme from Love Story (Where Do I Begin), and the happy Christmas song It's The Most Wonderful Time of the Year, will forever be etched in my memory.  We used to have this on LP vinyl and cassette, and we played the songs so many times at the main house, with Kong & Gwammy always listening intently.  Songs full of life, love and romance!  Thank you, Mr. Williams, for all the lovely songs that you so wonderfully sang--we enjoyed every bit.
