Hi Tony. The photo I posted shows as Mother Teresa, however it was pointed out to me that this photo I posted is NOT Mother Teresa. Check out on Snopes. I posted the photo with good intentions, so even if it is not Mother Teresa, it is !!!!! Over to you Tony.
Mother Teresa was the founder of the Order of the Missionaries of Charity, a Roman Catholic congregation of women dedicated to helping the poor. Considered one of the 20th Century's greatest humanitarians, she was canonized as Saint Teresa of Calcutta in 2016.
Who Was Mother Teresa?
Nun and missionary Mother Teresa, known in the Catholic church as Saint Teresa of Calcutta, devoted her life to caring for the sick and poor. Born in Macedonia to parents of Albanian-descent and having taught in India for 17 years, Mother Teresa experienced her "call within a call" in 1946. Her order established a hospice; centers for the blind, aged and disabled; and a leper colony.
In 1979, Mother Teresa received the Nobel Peace Prize for her humanitarian work. She died in September 1997 and was beatified in October 2003. In December 2015, Pope Francis recognized a second miracle attributed to Mother Teresa, clearing the way for her to be canonized on September 4, 2016.

Sorry Ian wrong singer. This guy had a beautiful voice he was the lead singer of a group of 5 singers in total for about 6 or 7 years and then went out on his own. The group had 4 lead singers over the years and this guy is referred to as the original lead singer though there was one before him who started in 1953 and left in 1953. The guy pictured sang all the songs that the group was famous for and his voice in my opinion is up there at the top of the best of the best.

No Tony, the group that he sang in consisted of 4 males of which he was one and one female. All were singers not musicians. They had the magic touch

G'day Sandy. Is he Tony Williams of the Platters ?
Cheers.
The Platters were discovered and managed by Buck Ram.[2] On the Mercuryrecord label45rpm release of the Platters' song, "My Prayer," Williams was listed as Tony Wilson.[citation needed] In a dispute over money, Williams left the Platters to pursue a solo career, and continued to work with Ram.[4]
Williams was elected to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the Platters in 1990. Tony performed with his own version of the Platters, known as the International Platters, featuring his wife Helen Williams. Musical Director William Gulino worked with Tony Williams and the Platters off and on from 1978 to 1992.
Clue tomorrow guys. Gotta make you work a bit for this one. I'd say most of you will have at least heard of him, even if you haven't actually seen him on TV. And no, he's not
an actor or singer.

Hi Sheba
This really is a stab in the dark, but I have to be in it, to win it
Arthur Ash, an American tennis player, once had the same haircut, and style of glasses
From memory he died of AIDS at an early age, due to contaminated blood transfusion, during an operation
I ask the question, is it Arthur Ash, by any chance
