George Michael's sister Melanie Panayiotou died at 55 on Christmas day, the third anniversary of the singer's death.
Michael sold more than 100 million albums globally, earned numerous Grammy Awards, and recorded duets with Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Luciano Pavarotti and Elton John, among others.
In 2004, the Radio Academy declared that his music had been played on British radio more than that of any artist between 1984 and 2004. That year, Michael told USA TODAY that he “was kind of glad that my success level went down in America. I got more of a life, got to enjoy being in America, with less attention than I was used to in Europe. But now I’m strong again. I feel ready to take on the world.”"I am in deep shock," Elton John wrote on Instagram at the time."I have lost a beloved friend – the kindest, most generous soul and a brilliant artist. My heart goes out to his family and all of his fans.
