They're never really gone while there are people who remember them. Funnily enough I heard a program recently about Vera Lynn, who was still healthy and singing away at the top of her voice from her upstairs bedroom, where her daughter or granddaughter cared for her. She started very young and was snapped up as a bandsinger by one of England's big bands of the day, it might have been Geraldo. She had a big voice.
