Soul singer Luther Ingram dead at 69

Diabetes strikes again

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Luther Ingram, the soul singer who seduced audiences with his hit "(If Loving You Is Wrong) I Don't Want to Be Right," has died of a heart attack at age 69, his family said on Wednesday.

Ingram, who also co-wrote the Staple Singers' hit "Respect Yourself," died Monday in Belleville, Illinois, near his home in O'Fallon.
Ingram had diabetes and suffered kidney failure in 2003, his son, Eric, said.
"He couldn't tolerate the dialysis," said Eric, an aspiring music producer. "It began to take a toll on his heart, which caused his heart to fail."
