HONOLULU (AP)- Legendary crooner Don Ho, known for his raspberry-tinted sunglasses and catchy signature tune "Tiny Bubbles," has died, his publicist said Saturday. He was 76. Publicist Donna Jung confirmed the singer's death, but had no details. He had suffered with heart problems for the past several years. Ho had a pacemaker installed last fall and also underwent an experimental stem cell procedure on his ailing heart in Thailand in 2005. -
Johnny Gumbo emails some of his fonder ho remembrances: "Saw the Ho a couple of times when I was in Honolulu back in the late 60's...and then again a couple of years later on R & R from VN. Really put on a great dinner show...."Tiny bubbles in the wine, makes me feel happy, makes me feel fine" Ahhh...those were the days."
