Legendary musician Tony Bennett passed away on July 21, 2023, at the age of 96.

“For Tony, music has gotten him through everything in his life, good, bad and otherwise. Music really saved him. One night, he said, “You know, I'm forgetting the names of the musicians on stage. And so I said, “Well, we'll put the names of the musicians on the piano for you so you can just kind of look over.” And it was Tony that said, “Yeah, I'd like to go see the doctor.”

Tony Bennett was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s in 2016.

He still could remember and do every song. That was never a problem. I think Tony can still serve as an inspiration to people that if you love what you do, whatever it is that you do, keep doing it.”

I met when I was 14 yrs old I'm 38 now. He and his daughter were in an elevator with myself and my family we were at Caesars in Atlantic City. I went to school telling everyone no one knew who he was until they saw him the same week on the Grammys he was the first celebrity I met and I'm not fond of celebrities but I was glad I met Mr Tony Bennett he was such a nice man very kind spirit he reminded me of my grandfather he was half Italian. Rip Mr Bennett glad our paths crossed. Peace and Blessings 🙏🏼💙

Awww...I didn't know he passed away. In the last few weeks my favorite song "Rags to Riches" has been playing in my head, so I've been listening to it. There's so much emotion in his voice that really touches something in the soul. I love it. R.I.P great man, you will be missed.
