  • Mary Vesta Williams (December 1, 1957 -- September 22, 2011) was an American R&B singer. Originally credited as Vesta Williams, she was sometimes simply billed as Vesta beginning in the 1990s. She was known for her four-octave vocal range. Although Williams never had any albums certified gold nor any Top 40 hits on the Billboard Hot 100, she scored six Top 10 hits on the US Billboard R&B chart from the mid 1980s to the early 1990s. Williams was known for the hits, "Once Bitten, Twice Shy," "Sweet Sweet Love," "Special", and her 1989 #1 hit and signature song, "Congratulations".
    In January 2007, Williams released the CD, "Distant Lover" on the Shanachie Entertainment label. This 10 track release was a collection of classic cover tunes and featured Williams at her vocal peak.
    On September 22, 2011, Williams was found dead in a hotel room in El Segundo, California, a suburb of Los Angeles. At the time of this upload, an official cause of death has not been released.

    My girl. I will love and miss you forever. My favorite singer of all times. She could do things vocally that no other singer could do.

    Vesta was one of a kind. Her style, voice range and her sassy personality were unmatched! I wish that she had been marketed better. When we lose such a beautiful voice and spirit too soon it is nothing less than a shame! Rest Well Sister, I know they are happy in heaven to have you!

    Vesta could take an old song and not only make it new again but make it her own. Missing the big voiced Divas. You know the ones who could stand on stage flat footed and hit a note that would bring the house down.
