I'm about to take a trip to Kansas City and just found out that Ida has passed away. I'm so saddened. My husband and I went to the Blue Room several years ago to hear some music and that's when I discovered Ida's beautiful talents. Little did I know....that she had actually just cut one of my songs I had written, titled "Jump Into My Fire". It was such a wonderful evening getting to meet her and hear her sing! I will never forget it. I wish I had a copy of her singing my song. Fly High Miss Ida with your wonderful voice now in heaven.

My wife and I made every effort to see Ida when we traveled to KC. She also made appearances in Omaha. Our most memorable was a small club in KC, very few people so we sat in the front. She came out and sang “to” us. Unforgettable. Rest in peace legend.

It always was so charismatic & generous with her wonderous voice. I so enjoyed listening to her. I could close my eyes & drift with the clouds & the wind. She moved me so. I will miss that soothing & sometimes boysterous energy. Rest well.

So wonderful to be touched by that voice, the smile and your professionalism. A Kansas City legend will be missed. Thank you for sharing your gifts.

I was turned on to your music when I bought a bunch of blues records from an estate sale. One of which was "Here It Is" that you had autographed to Milton Perry, what a fabulously relaxing record, I love it.

I miss seeing Ida and feeling her gorgeous music. I hope you are well and happy. You have improved my mood and quality of life since the 1980’s in Waldo. Currently the building is another bar and grill. Back then we could enjoy “steak night” and be mesmerized by Miss Ida.

In 1991 when I turned 21 I was asked what I wanted to do for my birthday. Ida was staring in a play at the American Heartland Theater. That is what I did for my 21st birthday. I had snuck into a few places before I was 21 to listen to Ida perform. I would really love to know what the name of that play was though. I'm 50 years old now and still tell people about the play and how if they ever get to Kansas City they need to go hear Ida. I'm from Kansas City, born and raised.

Ida was a sweetheart. I was a young line cook at Mr. Putsches on the Plaza and would bring her popover sandwiches made with prime rib. After the kitchen closed I would sit in the bar storeroom and listen to her sing till closing. She is the best!

I first met Ida at Linwood Super where she was a frequent and honored shopper. Ida is a legend and a class act. I love her sound and her talent.

Are you and the Blue Room still providing unbelievable music on third Saturdays?

If so, what time does your show start and end?

Who would you most like to visit with today if it were possible? Julia Lee or Mary Lou Williams and why?

Ms. Ida:

I used to enjoy seeing you at The Point in the late 80's and at Quincy's in the Adams Mark in the late 80's and early 90's I think. I had a chance to speak with you at Quincy's and really enjoyed your performances. I hope this note finds you well.

My girl, you look great. I sent you an email with a special request. I know that I have high expectations, but what is a girl to do when she is calling out all the stops?
I love you today just like yesterday and back at Wyandotte High School.
Blessings my friend
