Final goodbye: Recalling influential people who died in 2021

They both carved out sterling reputations as military and political leaders over years of public service.

Gerry Marsden, lead singer of British band Gerry and the Pacemakers, has died at 78 after a short illness

Gerry Marsden of Gerry and The Pacemakers performs on the TV show Beat-Club in 1965 in Bremen, Germany. His friend Pete Price said on Instagram after speaking to Marsden's family that the Gerry and the Pacemakers frontman died after a short illness related to a heart infection. Marsden was the lead singer of the band that found fame in the Merseybeat scene in the 1960s. Though another Liverpool band — The Beatles — reached superstardom, Gerry and the Pacemakers will always have a place in the city's consciousness because of "You'll Never Walk Alone." I'm going to tell my band we're going to play that song," Marsden told The Associated Press in 2018 when recalling the first time he heard the song at the cinema.
