[NewsVine_Mariyam]

Her music has been inspirational in my life to the point where I remember where I was when I first heard "Overcomer". "Good Morning" is also another anthem and I especially like the Toby Mac comment at the end of the song

Somebody posted on this yesterday. I had never heard of her. Your vid selections were much better.
Did they ever say what she died of?

You could assume that the media would be informed if they considered it a homicide so what's left in the death of a 47 year old?
