I had never heard of her before. I was amazed by her powerful voice. I heard that she became a recluse and longed to meet her to say how much I loved that song. Sadly that opportunity has now passed. Such a shame<br />AnthonyAnthonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407881952206390795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3424694735329297473.post-55153038355443115702011-05-28T14:58:07.850+01:002011-05-28T14:58:07.850+01:00I was so saddened to hear the passing of dear Kath...I was so saddened to hear the passing of dear Kathy. It was in the very early 1960's when I first met Kathy, at the time I was a photographer working for Associated Rediffusion and Kathy was a regular star in 'Stars and Garters' on ITV. I was privileged to have worked with her on a number of picture shoots during that period, in fact, when she had just received the first pressing of her record, 'Secret Love' I was photographing her at her Mayfair flat, she was so excited she played the record at full volume while singing along with it and I was treated to a wonderful performance.<br />Kathy will always be remembered as the star with the infectious bubbly personality, who lit up the room whenever she entered and gave so much pleasure to so many people.<br />She will be greatly missed. <br />May you rest in peace, <br />Luv, Bill OrchardBillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16422243404843667160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3424694735329297473.post-51060264327321036722011-05-25T23:25:21.007+01:002011-05-25T23:25:21.007+01:00Hearing about the news just now of kathy's dea...Hearing about the news just now of kathy's death, I am reminded of how very highly in my esteem I have held her ever since she first sang that marvellous rendition of: Secret Love. From that instance and ever since, she gained a secure place in the hearts and minds of the British people (and no doubt far further afield). What kathy sang about in that song became part of the English vernacular - we all knew the highs of feeling deeply in love, and how to express that "from the highest hill . . . even to the golden daffodil . . . . " SUPERB!!<br />I feel very very sad to receive news of her death. We have all been blessed to live during a time Kathy was part of our lives. Her singing takes us to places of high pleasure, soaring above the humdrum everyday domestic. She was gorgeous in appearance and anyone who can sing like an angel, must surely be one. I have no doubt that she holds a firm place in the celestial heavens, anywhere less lovely just would not do, not for our Kathy. Thank you so very much dear kathy for all the pleasure you gave us. God Bless you and look over you forever.<br />Love love love from jackie xxjacquelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16684286510682203909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3424694735329297473.post-27451753416463379032011-05-23T19:56:17.953+01:002011-05-23T19:56:17.953+01:00So sad to hear of the passing of Kathy, She was on...So sad to hear of the passing of Kathy, She was one of this countries greatest singers, if not the best, she will be sadly missed.<br />I am sure that all her fans will join me in saying, Our Thanks to You.<br /><br />Your greatest fan.tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00938218553817165075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3424694735329297473.post-7704760715295288802011-05-21T16:59:41.744+01:002011-05-21T16:59:41.744+01:00Hi All fans out there
