RIP Antoinette K-Doe

[dixiehack]

Of all days to shuck this mortal coil ...

Antoinette K-Doe, the irrepressible widow of rhythm & blues singer Ernie K-Doe who transformed the Mother-in-Law Lounge into a living shrine and community center, died early Tuesday after suffering a massive heart attack. She was 66.
