I hate when the idols of my youth are slowly slipping away... although I certainly was not expecting this one. Oy! I have *zero* knowledge about her health, but I am especially shocked that she died from breast cancer- a disease that has a markedly better prognosis today than it did in the past. Oh, this is so sad... The first record I ever bought was the 45-single of Donna Summer's "MacArthur Park" b/w "Once Upon a Time (Live)." I bought it at the Korvettes in Times Square. I played the sh** out of that thing.

RIP Donna Summer

They are saying it was lung cancer from breathing in particles from 9/11.
