It was strange when Mama Cass Elliot (of the Mama and Papas) died. At first it was rumored that she choked on some food, but she actually died of a heart attack. She always had had a weight problem, but she was only 32 when she died.

She had a wonderful voice, and I was an avid fan of the Mamas and the Papas back in the day. It was quite a shock to me when I heard she'd passed away.
