Patty Andrews: Alan Eichler

Andrews Sisters Dept: Andrews died of natural causes at her home in the Los Angeles suburb of Northridge, said family spokesman Alan Eichler in a statement, according to CBC. She could also deliver sentimental ballads like I'll Be with You in Apple Blossom Time with a sincerity that caused hardened GIs far from home to weep and patty Andrews, the last surviving member of the singing Andrews Sisters trio whose hits such as the rollicking Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy of Company B and the poignant I Can Dream, Can't I ? captured the home-front spirit of the Second World War, died Wednesday. She was 94. Patty was the Andrews in the middle, the lead singer and chief clown, whose raucous jitterbugging delighted American servicemen abroad and audiences at home. 'There were just three girls in the family. LaVerne had a very low voice. Maxene's was kind of high, and I was between. It was like God had given us voices to fit our parts' Patty Andrews (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
