Etta, best known for her hit song “At Last,” died at Riverside Community Hospital with her husband and two sons by her side.

Friend and manager Lupe De Leon confirmed the news in a statement, “This is a tremendous loss for the family, her friends and fans around the world. She was a true original who could sing it all — her music defied category.”

“I worked with Etta for over 30 years. She was my friend and I will miss her always,” he added.
