Mimi, Brook, Amandita and Bruce, my prayers to all of you. I hope Brooklyn's documentary makes Donna's soul rest trully in peace. She gave it so much to all of us, she deserve it. 

Donna would be 74 this New Year's Eve. I miss seeing her live whenever she was in the Philadelphia PA area. Usually in Atlantic City NJ. I lost count of how many times I had been blessed with hearing her beautiful voice in person. I still listen to her music whenever I feel happy, overwhelmed , sad or celebrating. 

Whose life has been written by God, he has to live as much as he breathes, I pray to God, give peace to his soul, I am from India, I am a Muslim boy, I am very sad this news 

My Condolences  to Ms.Donna Summers Family. 
"I will survive" so will her Memory  &  and her Gifted voice. One of a kind 

Can’t believe you’ve been gone for 9 years! Your music has got me through a lot. ❤️

I was blessed to have been able to see Donna in concert many times. She was a blessing in my life journey and I miss her every day.

I remember Donna as those yesterday. It really hit me hard with your passing. Just wanted to express a few great feelings about her greatly. 

I came across Mrs. Sudano last year while randomly listening to different artists on Apple Music. Her voice was unlike all the rest, and I just had to know who this angelic voice belonged to.  It’s been a year later and I don’t think I’ve gone three whole days without one of her songs playing. It’s purely magnetic, and I am convinced she had to be one of the most beautifully talented singers in the history of singers. Her talent today, would have changed the everything.

I was blessed to have been able to see Donna Summer live many times over the years. She was and still is my favorite " Therapy ". When I am feeling down her voice brings me up , when I am happy  her voice lets me celebrate and when I want to sing in my car I perform duets with her. I tell everyone I know how much she has been a part of my life , from me coming out in 1980 to my marriage and beyond . I will be singing with her when I go to my eternal home ❤️💙❤️

Donna Summers voice lifted me up in bad times while  adding poetic  rhythm to my good times.  I know there is not another pure voice such as hers.  She sung with great force  giving performances that cannot be challenged by any entertainer of today as her voice had no mechanical additives; just pure soul. 
Ms Summers is of a time when voices could not be questioned. I, along with many other music connoisseurs, will keep her forever in my heart. Sorry for your loss. 

Donna Summer's music has provided evidence that she has  not, and will NEVER dance her last dance. Heaven knows that we will keep her alive by remembering our queen of Disco. 

Wonderfully talented beauty. Her voice a gift from God. Bless her for sharing her gift

I miss you more with each passing  year and day!!!!

Time has passed but my most sincere condolences to her family and friends. Donna and her music were a wonderful part of my teen years and beyond.  My Dad absolutely loved your music! The hits were always in rotation on one of his party reel to reels! One of my fondest memories is a house full of people and Donna's songs. Thank you for making my life so much brighter. Much Love, Jay

I have just seen this and am honored to have the opportunity to write my condolences to the family and friends of Donna Summer. 

When I found out about her passing, I was stunned and deeply saddened. I was at my work desk and started crying. I felt as if a huge part of my childhood was gone. 

She was a huge part of my life, even tho I didn’t know her personally, as she had provided special memories for me. You see, I had lost my Mother some years prior and every time I heard one of Donna Summer’s songs, I would think of my Mom (R.I.P.) and me singing, dancing and simply enjoying our time together. 

I’m sure many people would agree that it was her music that brought joy and life both on the dance floor and to many singers, such as myself, who trained (with her beautiful voice) and learned her songs backward and forward. She was iconic!

Ms. Summer, you brought joy to so many. You live on in your songs and artistry. We miss you so much. I miss you. 

I pray that you’ve met my Mom in heaven and are singing and talking and enjoying each other. 

Prayers to the family and friends.

Rest In Peace Ms. Summer. Heaven Does Know and this is NOT the Last Dance. 

Miss you! 

With love, respect and prayers, 🙏 ❤️

Loved her songs still play them this very day. She was a wonderful singer. My condolences she will be very much missed in the music world.

I spent two Summers with Donna at Boston College in an Upward Bound program. This was in 1966 and 67 and she was already singing her heart out.  This was before she adopted the name “Summer”. I watched her career with great interest over the years and told my friends “I knew her once” She was always special.

I was graced to meet mega talent Donna Summer several times thanks to her dear friends Alice and Stanley Harris who were kind enough to introduce me at several events they hosted. I remember telling Ms. Summer, "Why is it that I know the lyrics to all of your songs but can't remember my checking account number?" She smiled. What a gracious talent. Her star shines bright. 

Just as beautiful as the first day I heard your awesome music,You will be greatly missed!!

I remember hearing Donna Summer passing and thinking this was the only living musician I really wanted to meet. And was heartbroken, and I am thankful for her voice and song writing. I hope to become a singer soon and give back to her in some way.

We still have your beautiful voice, Bravo, Bravo!!!

Deepest condolences to Miss Donna Summer's loved ones.  She is the Queen of Disco music and so much more to music and style always.  Donna was the soundtrack to life.  Donna, Dionne and Chaka Khan are the best singers.  Donna is missed.  Thoughts and prayers to Mr Sudano, Mimi, Amanda, Brooklyn and to everyone who loves Donna.

What can I say, except to echo everyone else's words of loss and missing the late great DONNA SUMMER(RIP) I have been a fan of Miss Summer since the early age of 14 way back in 1976 when I first heard the Four Seasons Of Love album a friend of mine used to bring over to another friends house. My first words were "WHO IS THAT SINGING!?" Since that very moment, my spirit and soul were awoken by the awesome DONNA SUMMER! 

I attended every show I could when she was in L.A. & Las Vegas, and I was very fortunate to meet her mom, dad, sisters, her kids, her husband, and go back-stage after concert shows, I was at the Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony, and again I had the chance to chat with Donna again and again before and after that event. I feel so very blessed to have gotten to know her even if it was for short times in my life with the great Donna Summer, but I will never forget her, and I miss her like everyone else who as a fan, and who loved her dearly. 

Donna was a lovely sweet and kind woman to all, & as she was to me always! I am so grateful to have known you Donna Summer, and I know that I will see you again in the afterlife once we all leave the life we have here on this earth. GOD Almighty have you in HIS mercy, care, and peace, & love. I will always love you, dearest Donna! Sincerely, your fan forever as long as I live...

Remembering QUEEN Donna Summer and her upcoming 67th birthday on 12/31/2015.  I always listen to her wonderful songs.  Heard the countdown, from 1979, this weekend on satellite radio and many of her stellar songs from that year from her Live & More, Bad Girls and Greatest Hits-On The Radio albums.  What great memories, of 1979, from this classy & talented lady!!  She'll always live on through her music and via film & pictures featuring her.

Dear Donna, I miss you so very much. I'm so lost without you and really didn't know you. I can't imagine how your family must feel.  RIP Angel.

Thinking of the Queen on her 65th Birthday, today.  I celebrated my milestone birthday (50th Birthday)a couple of days ago and always think of Ms. Summer during the time of our birthdays (we are both Capricorn ladies).  She will always be missed and fondly remembered by me.  A truly talented lady and so glad I was in the audience of one of her concerts! Rest in Peace and thanks for the great music you created and performed, Queen.

It was a year ago, today, in which the world lost a true treasure when the Queen, Donna Summer, passed away.  In remembrance of her extraordinary singing talent and a lady who had beauty, class, style and great stage presence. These younger female singers should look to you, as an example, because you were the real deal! You were also a smart business woman and handled your business wisely and effectively.  Show business is not only about talent and you recognized how important the other side of it was, as well.  I am glad the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is honoring you this month.  I only wish you were here to be able to accept it (Lord knows I voted so many times for you to be inducted into it).  However, I know you are beaming with joy, as your fans are, too.  I am so glad I got to see you in concert live, back in 2008.  What an awesome performance!  You were not only a great singer/entertainer but also a caring & loving mother, wife, relative, friend, etc.  I have been a fan since I was a child and will always be one.  I listen to your music all the time and your music shall endure for eternity.  I saw a couple of shows recently which showcased the Disco era.  Let's be very clear....Donna Summer is the ONLY Queen of Disco and there is no other that shall ever hold this title!!  She was a global sensation who helped usher Disco onto the radio stations and into nightclubs because of the demand for her recordings and live appearances all over the world.  No other female shall ever upstage her role during the Disco era.......bar none!  Rest in Peace, Queen, and you will forever be missed.

Remember Yesterday as Today.
The eternal flame. Lady of the Light.
I am proud of all the steps you made on Earth.
After your passing my special feelings didn't fade. Don't know why (?!)
Music still in my heart.
Best wishes to Bruce, your doughters and other relatives.

She was not a influence on drugs and sex... She was an influence with passion and elegance with unique style and professionalism. The most sensual singer of all time with symphony disco (with orchestra); awesome with powerful range of voice with unforgettable inspirational performances with talent and class. She started with rock & roll ("Pandora's box" "Lady of the Night" "Love's Unkind"), euro-disco opera, Latin-caribbean dance ("Try me I Know We can Make it" Autumn Changes" "Come with Me" "Deep Inside") blues ("Remember Yesterday", "Black Lady") soul,opera,soft adult contemporanean ("Whispering Waves" "Winter Melody" more..)  Broadway and jazz ("My Man" "Memories" "Lush Life" more...) and later on with rock/alternative/new wave/soft rock quiet storm/synch-pop/country/ pop and much more (all of these for an African euro-American lady); and her 1st electronic music influences ("I Feel Love")and the 1st (only ones 1975-1980)long album versions (mixed songs). Her public appearances had so much passion and "love was the Healer" for her audience; Always, her role modeling has being for many divas and will be for many "modern singers and bands" of today.

 I met Donna & her husband on the street once.... Donna was friendly & unassuming  not only was she talented and beautiful, but class act as well.....very hard to find this type of person in the industry...R.I.P sweet angel....Some of my best memories involve her music

Your music was wonderful. Thanks for all the lovely memories.

My heart goes out to your family and friends.  Rest in peace. You were a beautiful person with a beautiful voice.

Rest In Peace, Disco Queen Summer. See You On The Other Side Some Beautiful Day, Sweet Lady!

To Donna Summer,
You were a very talented entertainer. I loved your songs hot Stuff, She works hard for the money, Bad Girls, etc. My prayers are with your family. Lisa Weiner

Sending my love and prayers to the family.  I know she is with God singing her heart out. She was and still is a great singer who is loved by all.

Sending this note on New Year's Day (Jan. 1, 2013).  Happy Birthday (Dec. 31, 2012) in memory of the Queen  (the one and only) Ms. Donna Summer!!  Your music and memory will always be celebrated all over the world and never forgotten.

To Donna Summer,
You were a great entertainer. I really enjoyed your songs Last dance, hot Stuff, She works hard for the money, On the radio, Dim all the lights , etc. My prayers go to your family. God bless you Miss Summers, Lisa Weiner

My condolences goes out to the family of Donna Summer. I remember her songs as I grew up, then dancing to them and still dancing to them now. She was great singer! May you continue to find comfort in God and meditate on his promises to give you some solace during this difficult time.

Mr. Sudano:

 

Donna Summer was my hero - having overcome so much and possessed the most out of this world singing talent!

 

But, my favorite part about who she is is about you all, your early years together and the marriage that lasted in a world where marriages do not last.

 

I just wanted to send you my heartfelt condolences a few months after she passed, knowing that so many surround you initially but few remember to love on you after the first weeks have passed.

 

Donna was a huge inspiration to me, and her salvation story is mine - living so many years feeling guilty and worthless, at least to God anyway, and then the light bulb goes off. I praise God that the person of Donna Summer and the voice that was unmistakable and irresistible sings with the choirs in heaven today!

 

God bless you, and God bless your family as you continue to grieve the loss of the physical presence of such a grand lady!

Donna was a very special person. She had a wonderful voice and a very talented singer. You will be truly missed.  REST IN PEACE DONNA.

Donna was a wonderful singer and will be truly missed.

Donna touched us all with her singing she will be missed god bless her soul!

I miss you more with each passing day!!!!

she like so many others before her and after have made their marks in this dimension.Her along with others music will live for ever, and I feel that music is the most expressions of love than any other.

Thank you Donna for singing all those great songs and writing most of them.  I enjoy listening to all of your albums and your video releases.  You will always be remembered by me.

To my dear donna, ive been a fan of yours for 37 years, your song helped me so much during times in my life when  i was so ill, your voice was so special to me, and my god what a voice u had, i miss u so much like many of your fans, all i can say is god bless you and thank u for everything u have done, u r missed so much, rip.xxx

Not a day go by that you are not in my thoughts. Thank you for everything my dear friend. Looking forward to be part of this huge massive audience attending your concerts in heaven.

To Donna Summer,
You were a great entertainer. I loved your songs Dim all the lights, Bad Girls, Macarthur Park, Hot Stuff, Etc. My prayers are with your family. Lisa Weiner

Thank you for being the best friend I could count on during times of happiness and especially sorrow.  I will miss you but will always listen to your music and remember the good times.  I never had the pleasure of meeting you, but saw you several times in concert - the last time in Nashville in 2006.  God bless you and may you rest in peace.  God bless your family and friends during their time of mourning and healing.  Love you.

I like Donn 



























My home town girl

WHAT A VOICE AND SUCH BEAUTY. NO ONE WILL EVER TAKE HER PLACE. THANK YOU JESUS FOR SUCH AN ANGEL.

One part of my life is just gone, but the other part is your soul, left in my heart. 
Timeless tides, i would say.
Remember Cleo & Julius in ancient times. 
Nothing's changed.
Just Cupido's trig. I love you.
I feel the pain of your relatives, like mine. I wish them all the strength and comfort God can give.
You never die to me Donna.  
I know, once upon a time, everything fit together in the right way.
This believe appears to me true.
Once we'll meet.

I love Donna 's music, she will be greatly missed!

My heart still aches, can't imagine what her family's hearts feel. Donna helped lift my life during some pretty rough times. I'm so grateful for her voice, music, and wonderful nature. Thank you Donna, I sure am gonna miss ya. But I promise I'll continue to have a good life, on my honour I will try, Love always your friend unknown, Brian Ingram Toronto

Still feeling so heart heavy over the loss of such a great woman, Donna Summer. This is a tough one for her family, friends, and fans. Hold on to the love, it's bound to get you through. I'll always miss you Donna.

My sympathy,prayers and love goes out to The Summer Family.Donna I just loved her music beauty and songwriting and of course her singing she was just an amazing person.A Great loss to the musical world and she will be missed and remembered forever in my heart the Queen Of Disco will not be forgotten.Rest In Peace Donna.Thank you for the music of a lifetime.God Bless.

RIP BEAUTIFUL LADY. My prayers and thoughts are with  her husband and family. DONNA you will be truly missed.

Donna will remain my Hero till my demise. Then we will be together again for eternity.

As a professional bass player here in the UK for whom Ms Summer's work had a seismic effect on a young session musician - from the utterly original and ground breaking 'I Feel Love', through to the brilliance and sophistication of her album with Quincy Jones, her body of work will remain as fresh and compelling decades from now, an achievement current so called pop stars can only dream of. As with other artists like the Bee Gees, we will never see their like again. Like many I was privileged to have been there from the start, to appreciate the sheer artistry of this music colossus whose voice always made the heart beat faster. Sorely missed but never forgotten.

I can't tell you how special you was to me.

Donna Summer & Whitney Houston were SUCH GREAT TALENTS!!!... All anyone can do NOW... is "Immitate" them!!!... "Dim All the Lights!!"... (in Heaven)

Dear Donna . . . Throughout my childhood and teenage years you were an inspiration and a source of comfort. Your voice was truly a gift from God, and I had the pleasure of meeting you and your family many times over the years, both in the U.S. and the U.K. Your sweet Mom & Dad were so kind to myself and my sister Karen.

Your incredible music will keep your memory alive, and until my own passing day I will listen to your songs with a warmth in my heart only a voice like yours could bring. That was your strength, and long may it continue.

Rest in peace Donna, and thank you for being so nice to me over the years and for all those happy days singing, dancing, loving, crying and feeling the love from your most amazing recordings and live shows.

Grant (London)
