I think OP’s title is fine…I don’t get what the problem is. She is no more. She has died. Of course her music carries on.
+1. "Is no more" is a euphemism, just like "passed away," "has left us," "is gone," etc.
OP here. I am trying to understand why my title caused so much consternation to certain posters. Someone actually called me a pig yesterday over the thread title.
It is offensive OP because she still exists in her afterlife in heaven.
It is not offensive; it's what many people who lived in the country and small towns used to say. It's an expression.
New to me. I did not live in small towns and it's like saying, "Tina Turner-kicked the bucket!" "Tina Turner! Worm food!"

People used to say a lot of ignorant things...it is time to move forward. Where are you from?
You’re the one who’s ignorant. Is English not your primary language? Where are you from?
