Are there any BJ Thomas fans here? [View all]
Unfortunately, he passed away about a week ago. We had the privilege of seeing him several times and he is one awesome performer and human being. I was always surprised at how humble he was considering his Fame. He had the same wife since the 1960s and the last several years she traveled with him and he always introduced her.
I believe he passed away from lung cancer. Sad to see yet another one of our favorite musicians gone.
