Now that you have left us you will always be remembered for the joy you shared throughout the world. RIP lovely lady.

Deeply depressing to learn of this beautiful woman passing. She had one of the most stunning voices in popular music; in fact, one of the most impressive voices in ANY kind of music. In addition, she was a sweet, loving, and gracious human being. It's a platitude, but the world will be a poorer place without her.

And I am letting myself feel this loss as much as I can bear to. Unique , her real self, An angel voice of an angel.

Her pure angelic voice was instantly recognisable. No one could sing like Judith. I'm astounded to hear her say she made her own clothes in the 1960s because of a weight problem! Good heavens! She was beautiful and had a lovely figure. I hope she came to realise that she was seen as a beautiful woman. Rest in peace sweet lady.

With Judith gone, the Carnival is truly over. As superb as the men were, and still are, Judith, with her magnificent voice, was the key performer! With the Seekers clean and superb musical style, resonating with strong Christian values, they brought joy to millions of households for decades and put Australian music firmly on the world stage. Sadly, Judith's passing marks the end of a magnificent era.

[@stephenalanmoore7278]

That's true, but we will still have all of her lovely music (that she recorded both with 'The Seekers' and in her own solo career) to enjoy forever. Judith Durham was (and will always remain) a unique and irreplacable performer, as well as a truly beautiful woman who will always be very sorely missed.

I was so saddened to hear of the passing of that dear lady Judith. her music had been in my life since the sixties. I loved their sound from the very beginning even though way back then as a trendy Mod they weren't considered the coolest band on the block. I saw her in concert many times over the years including their last performance at The Royal Albert Hall where her voice and their combined sound were pitch perfect. I treasure her memory. a beautiful, refined and elegant lady. I want to also mention the work she did to raise money and awareness for Motor Neurone Disease, which caused the death of her husband and my father. Thank you for the music and for being the lovely person you were. I hope you knew how loved you were.

One afternoon some 30 years ago when I was living with my late first wife Helena in Melbourne, Helena drove us to the studio of the top radio station 3AW for me to collect a prize I had won on one of the many quizzes the station featured then. As I was leaving the building, Judith also came from an interview she had just done and was heading out. I think I addressed her as Miss Durham, and said that my wife who is a tremendous fan of you - which was true - is outside in our car, and I wonder if you'll be kind enough to say hello to her. Judith replied, " Of course". When we reached the car, I opened the passenger door and said, " Judith I'd like you to meet a REAL STAR, my wife Helena". She graciously laughed and said, " I'm honoured to meet you Helena"! Helena was over the moon for hours! A wonderful singer and lady. So sad to learn of her death. I have the many jazz CDs she recorded. I'd recommend them highly.
