I did sound for her many times at the Maintenance Shop.  She was a class act.

I likewise mixed Koko several times.  Yeah, she had a way of taking any song & making it sound it like Wang Dang Doodle, but somehow she made that work; she was amazing on stage!  Plus, offstage she was a truly sweet lady.  (And, while I didn't know her until she was in her fifties, I've seen pictures of her in her twenties - what a babe!)
She will be missed.
