Natalie
Cole, the Grammy-winning singer who had hits with such songs as "This
Will Be" and "Our Love" and recorded "Unforgettable ... With Love," a
best-selling album of songs made famous by her late father, Nat King
Cole, died Thursday evening. She was 65.
Cole's death was confirmed by publicist Maureen O'Connor. Notable people were quick to express their condolences.
Born in 1950, Cole grew up among musical royalty. Her father was one of
the most accomplished singers and jazz musicians of the postwar era, and
her mother, Maria Hawkins Cole, was a singer for Duke Ellington. Their
house, in Los Angeles' upscale Hancock Park neighborhood, was a regular
spot for her parents' colleagues.
May her soul rest in peace
