Frank Sinatra had a remarkable career spanning multiple decades and left an enduring impact on the realms of music and entertainment. He gained prominence in the 1940s, transitioning to a solo act after performing with the orchestras of Harry James and Tommy Dorsey. Throughout his highly successful career, Sinatra achieved numerous accolades, earning 11 Grammy Awards, including prestigious honors like the Grammy Trustees Award, Grammy Legend Award, and the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award.
It’s been over two decades since the singer’s death at 82, and his third wife, Mia Farrow, recently shared a post on social media to commemorate the late musician on his posthumous birthday.
Farrow, who was married to Frank Sinatra between 1966 and 1968, paid tribute to the legend by sharing a throwback photo of the singer dressed in a white button-down shirt and slacks on what would have been his 107th birthday. In her heartfelt message, Farrow disclosed a nickname she affectionately used for him, which was derived from the initials of one of their cherished cartoon characters. “I bet he has those angel choirs singing some great new song,” the actress wrote. “Happy Heavenly Birthday C.B. I will always love you, only close friends know this but I called him ‘Charlie’ — Charlie Brown in full.”
The UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador disclosed that she captured the photograph of the deceased singer during the time of their marriage. “This was the first photo I took with the Rolleiflex camera he bought for us. He was teaching me how to use it,” Farrow added.
Fans of the iconic singer expressed their sentiments on Farrow’s Instagram update and paid tribute to the revered artist. “Happy heavenly birthday, blue eyes! Your music has been part of my life for so long,” a fan wrote. “My Dad is in heaven too and loved your voice! Sing with the angels.”
Other enthusiasts seized the moment to recount their cherished personal memories associated with Sinatra’s timeless music, sharing their experiences and connections with his classic tunes. “His voice was the music of my childhood! My parents loved Frank, and his records were always on the family stereo!” one person wrote. “May his memory be a blessing, Mia,” another fan commented.
