Andy Williams RIP (1927-2012)
Andy Williams, the silky-voiced singer whose recording of Moon River brought him fans all over the world, has died at the age of 84.
Williams passed away on Tuesday night at his home in Branson, Missouri, following a year-long battle with bladder cancer, his publicist said. Williams revealed in November 2011 that he had been diagnosed with the disease but planned to keep performing. Until recently, he continued to appear at the Moon River Theater he built in Branson for two shows a day, six days a week, across nine months of the year.
