Many of us who are living with Cancer (including myself ) will be saddened by this news.
Hits hard when it is a person your own age and generation who leaves too soon

My thoughts are with Bruce tonight. He must be in bits. We all were in love with Olivia to some extent, let's admit, but for those who actually knew her and loved her this is devastating news.

Rest in peace, Livvy.

I think it's fair to say that ALL of the Shadows and Cliff will be devastated by this news. But their grief will probably be nothing compared to that of her family.

I am so glad that I got to see Olivia sing in 2017, at the Union Chapel in London. A brilliant night and Olivia was incredible. One of the best voices of all time.

Like many people, I first got to know about Olivia through the film "Grease". Some time later I found out about the strong Cliff Richard & The Shadows connections she had. She had a very beautiful and distinctive voice and was a great artist.
Rest in peace Olivia...

Very sad news.

Cliff, Bruce, John and John Farrar all played a huge role in her career - a contribution that is not always remembered.

Pleased to have seen her appearance at the RAH at Cliff's 75's birthday concert.

John Rostill too (mainly as a composer).
