Rona died of a very aggressive brain tumor and mercifully suffered no pain. I will miss her forever— my beautiful, smart, talented, funny, brave sister Rona,” she wrote.

 
Rona, 70, was surrounded by her family, including her famous sister who had been at her sister’s side since canceling all of her April Las Vegas performances.

“She was surrounded by the love of her four children— Fiona, Brett, Tottie and Emerson and her wonderful friends.”
