Deborah McCrary, a member of the popular gospel vocal group the McCrary Sisters, died on June 1.
She was 67.
“It is with deep sorrow that we share the news of the passing of our beloved sister Deborah,” the McCrary Sisters said in a statement released today.
Born June 17, 1954, Deborah Person McCrary will be remembered for her amazing work with the sister quartet, which also featured Ann, Regina and Alfreda McCrary.
The vocal group got its start in 2010 and went on to showcase its talents on a number of studio albums, beginning with the 2010 debut “Our Journey” and continuing through 2013’s “All the Way,” 2015’s “Let’s Go” and 2019’s “A Very McCrary Christmas.”
The sister act would also perform at Americana Music Association’s Honors & Awards, NARAS’s MusiCares, CMA, Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum and other notable occasions/venues/programs.
The Associated Press reportedly once described the vocal quartet as “ranking with the most potent roof-raising, pew shaking music ever created.”
Deborah delivered “the deep, low voice of the group,” according to a news release.
Before forming the McCrary Sisters group, she performed in the Grammy-nominated BCM Mass Choir.
Over the years, she has sang with such popular artists as Ray Stevens, Isaac Hayes and even Elvis Presley.
Outside of the entertainment world, McCrary spent much of her life working as a nurse.
Information regarding services and honorarium will be released at a later date.
