Yes, indeed. Whitney had true class. She bore The Voice that only God could have given and yet, she was aware that all of us are one so no one is better than the other. I miss her everyday.

[@JohnDoe-wx2st]

Whitney was just a good lady at heart. It’s the small gestures that show us who a celebrity really is. Patti was doing a duet with Dolly Parton one time and Dolly’s dress had a malfunction while they were singing and Patti while singing tried to fix it for her. I think moments like that are small but powerful and very telling.

[@jacquelineperry8740]

Reason whitney was so gifted cause of her respect for others.
