Andy Williams' Christmas show in Branson will have to go on without him this year. Sadly, his fight with bladder cancer ended this morning. He was 84, and never retired! Is it crazy to dream of working forever?

André-Marié D. Bond, Carla Griffin, Tuesday Wildchild and 5 others like this.

Dee Douglas i remember his television show. and he had two nephews that used to sing on there. i think they were his nephews. maybe his sons? anyway, i used to love watching his show. cancer sucks.
Elizabeth Phelps Blondefield You've gotta really love what you do to never retired. I don't think many of us feel that way......
Laura Vidaurri What a guy!!! I'm tickled he kept singing -- he had some pipes on him, he did! ...I had such a crush on him when I was a little girl. The first song I learned on the piano was "Moon River"...God speed Mr. Andy...xoxo
Steve Staton When asked who is your all-time favorite male singer, my answer was a long time ago and still today "Andy Williams". Love Story always a tear jerker and with Christmas coming, his songs will be that much more special this year!
Dave Glovin Rest In Peace Andy. Your voice isn't silent just singing to a majestic audience now!
Ofelia Pena McCain To do what you love until the end is a beautiful thing.
Dana Bondelie Hogan Always been one of my favorites, having grown up with his music in our home. Play his timeless Christmas CD's every year. He will be missed~Noreen Helvie sorry to hear. my mom survived that same cancer
Jona Denz-Hamilton Publicist, Paul Shefrin requests:
“In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to the Bladder Cancer Advocacy Network.”
Karen Herberger-Appelman so sad...R.I.P.
Marion Ingraham Pintello I remember watching his weekly show on the brand new color tv in the family rumpus room. What a natural singer.
