Memorial service held for Grammy-nominated R&B singer Angie Stone
AUSTELL, Ga. (AP) — Musical artists and loved ones on Friday mourned Grammy-nominated R&B singer Angie Stone, who was killed in a car crash earlier this month. Mourners filed into the massive Word of Faith Cathedral west of Atlanta, taking their seats around a silver and gold casket surrounded by a sea of red roses. “In her song No More Rain (In This Cloud),’” she says my sunshine is coming, and I’m all cried out,” filmmaker and entertainment executive Tyler Perry said at Friday’s service. “There’s no more rain in this cloud,” he said. “The beauty of what she was talking about is when a cloud has no more tears, it dissipates, it’s gone.”
