I agree. She had a very unique voice. Very soothing. Her death was very sad. I think she was the first and maybe only Celebrity death I knew about that was brought on by a eating disorder.
When I was about 11 or 12 years old a college student stayed with us for a few months and she allowed me to listen to her record collection. She had a Carpenters album that had recently come out (one of the first) and I fell in love with Karen's voice. It wasn't the pop-rock that normally appealed to me but I loved it.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
