Um, no. That was the Mamas and the Papas. Momma Cass.

Karen Carpenter was a singer with her brother and was called "The Carpenters." She died of complications related to severe anorexia.

It's pretty certain Karen Carpenter DID NOT choke on a ham sandwich.....

She had a lovely voice. Top of the World is such a happy song.

Alot of their songs are poignant , yet positive.
I wonder what they would be doing now, had she lived.

...I remember her..best female vocalist to come along in the last 50 years. Under rated in life and death. She had the vocal projection and range of Judy Garland but a much more melodic tonal quality..yes I miss her too...

I remember on a episode of Barnaby Jones, Barnaby question some bikers and asked if they listen to acid rock and they all responded no man we listen to the Carpenters.

You guys know that love of the Carpenters is an OGT, right?

As if believing SNOPES is more valid than believing any other media "source".
SNOPES is just as prone to failure as any other human endeavor.
Anyway you look at it, it was one ham sandwich too many.
