The motion
That this House places on record its sadness at the death of 'the first lady of song', Ella Fitzgerald; remembers her songs, The Sunny Side of The Street, Manhattan and Every Time We Say Goodbye and her style and voice which helped her through ill health and a double amputation; and recalls the voice which gave so much pleasure to millions of people over the last 50 years.
