Yesterday, I saw an article from a few days back. Carlos Marin, the booming baritone for Il Divo, passed away 19 Dec in a Manchester England hospital. One source reported that death was due to COVID. He was only 53. The group was touring England when he became ill.

 

Very sad 😢 to see this. I have always enjoyed their PBS specials, CDs, and DVDs. The world has lost a beautiful voice.

Just heard that on the news. Heart failure is 

what I read. Loved the Monkees, big part of

my growing up. He was a big piece of that
