Tina Turner, a woman who knew how to dominate, sing and cherish those around her. To live a life she led, must have taken grit, drive and determination, and she did it! She lived it!
Singing along to "What's love got to do, got to do with it... What's love but a secondhand emotion..." in the back seat of the car with my mom belting the lyrics. Not knowing back then what any of the words could have meant, nor realizing how impactful the moments like that were. Looking back now, Tina Tuner helped glue relationships together through song.
Rest in Paradise sweet Soul. We say goodbye to you as a person but hold all your beautiful work close to our hearts. Thank you for the memories and thank you for stopping by the Gorge Amphitheater here in Washington.
