It was sad to hear of the passing of the legendary crooner. I saw a clip on YouTube in which President Reagan said his voice was a "national treasure". He also came across as a genuinely nice and humble man. Moon River will always be a classic.

Aw Man, it's true.
Worked all day and saw a post somewhere where he was with Queen Elizabeth.
Truly sad.
Question: was he a bit player in a comedy variety show where he always turned down a bear wanting cookies? Made me laugh in the day.

I believe Branson was his home and where he passed. He also had a club/theater there.

A real loss,
Moon River and a Christmas classic:
A most wonderful time of the year

Can't listen to Moon River and not think of Breakfast at Tiffany's. Audrey Hepburn & George Pepard.
Rest in peace Andy.

I love Andy Williams. Brings back memories of my parents playing his albums on the weekend.
And this too.
