Beverly Sills

Her name is, famously, an anagram of "silvery bells."

Rest in peace...but not in quiet.

I'll always think of Bev as "Bubbles."

Thank You Beverly for helping opera to be so accessible and available to the American people.
We will miss you dearly. Peace be with you and your family.

I'll miss her lively humor, passion, and spirit forever. Thanks goodness for video and audio recordings, but mostly thank goodness for her. Maybe she's singing again, somewhere.

...sulle note della tua voce ho pianto,
possa ora il tuo canto
allietare gli angeli lassù
ed asciugare il vento
le nostre lacrime quaggiù...
