I was 9 when Grease came out and remember the incredible impact of it all.

She was gorgeous and you got the sense it was beauty inside and out.

I was so excited when my Mom bought the soundtrack. I played the hell out of that 8 track cassette.

Hers is one of my earliest recollections of global superstardom. Everyone at school in Calgary loved her and Grease and it was all the talk at school even though we were too young to go to the movie. But we all claimed to have seen it. When my family went to Ireland for our summer holiday, it was EXACTLY the same there. It’s impossible to state how ever present and uniquely fascinating that period was.

Loved her. Loved her music. Loved what she did and will continue to do for cancer research.

RIP
