RIP Maurice Fagin of the Monitors

I just viewed a post on Facebook [from the 'Motown-The Music & The Memories' group] stating that Maurice Fagin of The Monitors has passed on. No further info on it right now. Rest In Music, Power & Peace Maurice Fagin.

very sad news.

Hi - you're probably referencing my post. Sandra Williams [[formerly Fagin) is like a second mother to me, and the word comes from his biological daughter, who is also like a sis to me. I spoke last to Mr. Fagin sometime in July, he wasn't well then, and earlier last week, his daughter informed me his time was near.

Thank You Ms. T for the information and My Condolences to You & the Fagin Family on the passing of Maurice Fagin.

Rest in Peace Mr. Fagin.

I thought Mr. Fagin passed away years ago, but nevertheless RIP and thank you for the music.

RIP, Maurice. You and The Monitors were among Motown's semi-hidden treasures. Motown fans everywhere will miss you deeply.

May he Rest in Peace.

The Monitors’ Motown Anthology is brilliant, and I will be playing it today for sure. RIP Maurice.

Thank You Ms. T. for sharing the obituary for Maurice Fagin. Again, My Condolences to Mr. Fagin's Family & Friends at this sad time.

You're welcome, I know that the Monitors are beloved by true aficionados of Motown, and I was really excited to make contact with Mr. Fagin and the former Mrs. Fagin. Ultimately Ms. Sandra and her daughter have become family friends of mine, quite a pleasure and honor.

Stay tuned, as I'm collaborating with Motown Museum to honor Ms. Sandra in the next few months. I'll let folks know when plans are solidified.
