    (I feel like the older I get, the more posts I have do like this one.)    Kristen May has left Flyleaf. She was the replacement lead vocalist for Lacey Sturm, n é e Mosely. Now, Flyleaf finds themselves in the same predicament that they experienced back in 2012. Kristen May decided to make the change in order to spend more time with her son. This is, of course, completely understandable and a well thought out reason on her part. The only question that remains, though, is will Flyleaf replace May or will they call it quits? I'll keep you all posted.   Below is May's video on why she left Flyleaf.

   Christina Grimmie was a talented, hardworking singer. At the young age of 22, she had achieved great things. In 2014, Grimmie had received third place on the singing competition The Voice. Her YouTube channel had over 3 million subscribers. Christina Grimmie was on her way to great thigns. This all changed too fast, though. She was shot at a meet and greet in Orlando, Florida this past Friday, June 10. She later died in the hospital. The killer was 27 year old Kevin James Loibl. Loibl shot and killed himself just after shooting Grimmie. At this point, his motives are unclear.    Many musicians and celebrities have shared their condolences concerning Christina Grimmie's passing. Meghan Trainor, Selena Gomez, Justin Bieber, Shane Dawson, and many more have poured their hearts out for the singer. Christina Grimmie, 1994-2016. We miss you!
