WOW ! don't you think that's a little insensitive to say considering that being overweight was not the cause of her death (instead she had a stroke and had recovered from it but suffered from a pulmonary embolism this morning)
Lacresia was really a beautiful person. Inside and out. I sang back up with her on several occasions for Vanessa Bell Armstrong.
I remember Dwayne Woods was the MD for this play, he asked us to sing background, and it was for free. Lacresia knew we weren't getting paid, but didn't tell me. She said she needed some sort of entertainment if she was going to singing at some "basement couch road-show." I will never forget that.
