“She taught us all SOMETHING… She’s where we’re all trying to get one day so no need to be sad,” he continued. “Now we celebrate her legacy, her impact, her story & HER SPIRIT. She will LIVE FOREVER!!”
Her battle inspired celebrities like Dwayne Wade who called her and Ray “an inspiration of love.” Tributes poured in from others include India Arie and former Real Housewife of Atlanta Cynthia Bailey.
Singleton, a veteran of the U.S. Navy, was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2013.
Ray Singleton’s performance on America’s Got Talent in 2021 left the entire panel in tears.
