Another One Gone - Dixie Cups "Chapel Of Love" Singer Dies At 76

It has been just an awful month for the music industry. On the same day Ronnie Spector died, came word that Rosa Lee Hawkins, one of the original vocalists on the classic "Chapel Of Love" and a founding member of The Dixie Cups, is gone. She passed away after complications from a surgical procedure.

The article below relates how the girl group rose to fame, only to have it all snatched away by mismanagement, and the abuse she suffered at the hands of her manager.

Hawkins was 76 years old.

I just turned 37 a week ago. It's getting really tough seeing all of my favorites slowly passing away... or in some cases, happening all too quickly.
