    I had the chance to meet Vesta the beautiful diva in 1988, i was only 13 years old but i was so excited. I was shopping with my older sister at union station in Washington D.c. and we noticed her in the same store we were in. She was so very nice to us and autographed our dollar bills for us. Vesta was even more pretty in person and so down to earth as well. It was a fun and exciting moment....Rest in Glory Beautiful Vesta Williams.

    This was wonderful. Vesta is one baaaaad woman and Aaron has that soul and was a large part of a musical movement. This is what I want; if people claim they are singers, I want you to sing and not try to detract with gimmicks and nonsense. Times have truly changed musically and not for the better in my opinion, but to each his or her own.
