NEW YORK (AP) Legendary singer Teddy Pendergrass, dead after a long illness at age 59, spent his last 28 years in a wheelchair, left to wonder what life might have been like had a car crash not completely altered his destiny.
Before the crash, Pendergrass was one of the most electric and successful figures in music.
