Maggie Roche, Who Harmonized With Her Singing Sisters, Dies at 65 - New York Times
Monday, January 23, 2017Maggie and Terre Roche’s album “Seductive Reasoning,” released by Columbia in 1975.Suzzy Roche joined her sisters in 1976 and, as a trio, the Roches became a local sensation at clubs in Greenwich Village. One of their onstage favorites was a snappy three-part-harmony version of the “Hallelujah” chorus from Handel’s “Messiah.”Their debut album, “The Roches,” released in 1979, was produced by Robert Fripp of the band King Crimson. It included “The Married Men,” which was also later recorded by Phoebe Snow.Despite modest sales, the Roches persisted, making albums for Warner Bros. and, later, MCA and Rykodisc. Their songs appeared in the soundtrack to the 1988 film “Crossing Delancey” (in which Suzzy Roche appeared); in 1991, they provided the voices for a trio of animated cockroaches on an episode of the Steven Spielberg-produced cartoon series “Tiny Toon Adventures.”The Roches released a Christmas album, “We Three Kings,” in 1990, and a children’s album, “Will You Be My Friend?,” in 1994. The trio disbanded after the release of “Can We Go Home Now?” in 1995, but Maggie and Suzzy Roche recorded albums as a duo in 2002 and 2004, and the Roches released a final trio album, “Moonswept,” in 2007.In addition to her two sisters, Ms. Roche is survived by her partner, Michael McCarthy; her mother, Jude Roche; her brother, David, also a singer and songwriter; and her son, Ed McTeigue.

Monday, January 23, 2017A great-great-great-grandson of Brigham Young, who oversaw the Mormons’ migration to Utah, Steve Young, who was born in Salt Lake City, had been a run-first high school quarterback growing up in Greenwich, Conn.Edwards was surprised at becoming something of a celebrity during B.Y.U.’s championship season.“I find myself getting stopped in public places that I’ve been going to for most of my life,” he said. “Little kids come up to me and say, ‘Hi, Uncle LaVell,’ and I don’t even know them.”Before his final home game as coach, Cougar Stadium was renamed LaVell Edwards Stadium.Reuben LaVell Edwards was born on Oct. 11, 1930, in Orem, a few miles from the B.Y.U. campus, the eighth of 14 children in a Mormon farm family. As a youngster he watched the B.Y.U. team practice and thought of becoming a football coach someday. But he decided to attend Utah State in Logan instead of Brigham Young, feeling that if he lived at home while attending college he would be stuck milking the family’s cows.He was an all-Skyline Conference center and linebacker at Utah State and coached high school football in Salt Lake City before he was hired as a B.Y.U. assistant in 1962.In addition to his wife, the former Patti Louise Covey, and his daughter, he is survived by two sons Jim and John;his sisters Ruby Cameron, Norma Brady, Alene Felix, Shirley Maag and Colleen Healey; his brothers Lewis and Wayne, 14 grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren.Edwards, who was active in Mormon Church affairs, served an 18-month Mormon mission to New York City with his wife in 2002 and 2003.Religious obligations did take a toll on his teams. His 1976 squad had 20 players who were returning from missions.“If we don’t win our first few games,” the publication Cougar Illustrated quoted him, “we might start looking for some hell raisers.”No problem. The team lost its opener but finished the season at 9-3.Correction: December 31, 2016An obituary on Friday about LaVell Edwards, the former Brigham Young University football coach, using information the family released through the university, omitted some survivors. Besides his wife, the former Patti Louise Covey, and his daughter, Ann Cannon, and sons Jim and John, he is also survived by his sisters Ruby Cameron, Norma Brady, Alene Felix, Shirley Maag and Colleen Healey; his brothers Lewis and Wayne, 14 grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren.
