Soul Singer Dee Dee Warwick Dead at 61

Dee Dee Warwick - Grammy Nominee - Dies

Singer Dee Dee Warwick, who was a two time Grammy nominee, has died at the young age of 61-years-old in her New Jersey home.

Warwick died Saturday at a nursing home in Essex County, said Kevin Sasaki, a family spokesman. She had been in failing health in recent months, he said, and her sister was with her when she died.

Warwick had several hits on the soul and R&B charts in the 1960s and 70s, including “Foolish Fool,” “She Didn’t Know (She Kept on Talking)” and a version of “I’m Gonna Make You Love Me” that was later covered by Diana Ross and The Supremes.

Warwick got her start in the business as a backup singer to the legendary Aretha Franklin.
