Just yesterday Pavarotti was in the news, receiving an award for promoting Italian culture around the world. I poked a little fun at the great man when I read the news...I had no idea at the time that he was close to death, losing a battle with pancreatic cancer.
Lucianno Pavarotti has passed away and the jokes about the fat lady singing have begun. He was a legend and will be missed not only by opera fans everywhere but by the millions who were introduced to the music by him.
Respect.
