There is a wonderful video of her with her dad at his home when her career was young that conveys their closeness and his warmth and intelligence.
Is it on YouTube? I’d like to see it. Thank you.
Shame on everyone who doubted the (accurately) stated reasons for cancelling the performances. My condolences.
The announcenent could have been more honest to avoid all the doubt. But may he rest in peace. A big loss when one loses their dad, however old you are.
