Cherished Australian Indigenous radio presenter and singer, Candy Devine, has passed away
She passed away at the age of 85 after a prolonged illness.
Born Faye McLeod in Queensland in 1939, she enjoyed a remarkable career in the arts that spanned nearly five decades.
Candy was the mother of Australian celebrity chef Alastair McLeod, who shared the sad news of her passing on social media.
“Our dear mum has passed away after a life of laughter, music and singing,” Alastair wrote.
“Thank you [journalists] for sharing her amazing love story. She always shared a keen interest in our lives and loved giving me feedback when she saw me on the TV.”
Candy outlived her husband, Donald, who passed away in 2012.
She is survived by her four children.
