Unforgettable!

Natalie Cole, 1950 - 2015



A very talented family. We got to know Nat's brother Ike who sang in the piano lounge of a Phoenix resort back in the late 90's. We returned a few years in a row just to hear Ike sing and to chat with him during breaks.

    1. Yes, we saw that. One of Norma's roommates from the 60's sang in his band. A great guy.

  3. Saw that early this morning and had to read it, I couldn´t believe it. Once I had read what she had gone through I got it. RIP

  6. Such a loss at a young age. Personally we are affected by Dal Richards passing, we did a lot of dancing with his band.

  7. Sad news. The Coles were an institution at Capitol Records. Father and daughter died too young. Nat died at 45!
