    The fact that people still remember her 80 years on is a testament to how much she mattered to people in Britain’s darkest hour, god bless her RIP

      Of course they remember, she didn't stop singing after the war. She was the first British woman to have a number one in the US in the 1950s and was still on the charts for a long time during the 1960s. She had her own BBC television show in the 1970s and released many albums featuring songs by the Beatles, ABBA and a country album that was recorded in Nashiville in 1977. She didn't stop singing until 1995 at age 78.

    I am a 74 year old Canadian woman and am crying now for the Britain and Canada and USA and Australia that we once knew and were. These are precious memories and can remember my parents dancing to this fine lady's songs. Thank you Dame Vera Lynn for getting all of us through those terrible times. My name is Lynne too but with an e. May God usher you home. Amen.
