Thanks Marv. Always good to Martha’s historical perspective. Wow, Aretha singing in the pulpit at age 9!!!

They were just neighborhood children growing up together. Be proud to be from Detroit! It's always been Detroit vs The World! LOL!!!!

A very moving tribute to Aretha from Martha Reeves. Thanks for sharing Marv!

Yes, it is indeed very moving...and I love Martha's silver grey hair.

Similar to Mary's style, in a recent picture of her.

Both have a similar 'look' to how Della Reese once had hers.

These Detroit ladies really know how to age elegantly:)

Motown royalty growing up in the same city and neighborhoods and paying tribute and respect to the Queen of Soul. Detroit has given me the soundtrack of my life.
