I loved her music! Was lucky enough to go to a concert in '87! She was great on stage, too!

She will be badly missed. :

And now they rushed her daughter to the hospital.............

she's okay, they treated her for anxiety and stress. Poor thing is probably beside herself. The world lost a phenomenal singer, RIP Whitney.

Whitney Houston's family was told by L.A. County Coroner officials ... the singer did not die from drowning, but rather from what appears to be a combination of Xanax and other prescription drugs mixed with alcohol ... this according to family sources.

We're told Coroner's officials informed the family there was not enough water in Whitney's lungs to lead to the conclusion that she drowned.

Our sources say the family was told Whitney may well have died before her head became submerged.

And family sources tell us ... it was actually Whitney's aunt, Mary Jones, who discovered Whitney's body in the bathtub. Mary had laid out Whitney's dress for the evening on the bed and then left for about a half hour. When Whitney didn't come out of the bathroom, Mary entered, pulled Whitney out of the tub and began administering CPR.

And we're told ... Whitney's mom has arranged to have the singer's body flown back to Atlanta, as early as tomorrow. The family was told the Coroner has no problem releasing the body because there is no evidence of foul play -- and unless cops put a hold on the body, it can be flown back East.

Such a waste of what could have been..........so very sad.

not a waste, she'll live in our hearts forever.

I'm totlly Shocked!!!!

I love her voice..........and songs!!!

Good bye Sweet women with a powerful voice We'll miss you!!!

Whitney, we will always love you.
