This past March I went to see James Barbour perform at Birdland and Ms. Holm was in the audience. I knew who she was but had never heard of Frank until James Barbour pulled him up to sing. Very lovely voice - I think he sang "Some Enchanted Evening" but I'm not 100% sure.
After the concert was over Frank got up to schmooze and Celeste was left at the table alone. I remember feeling incredibly bad for her. She was just sitting there with her purse in her lap staring off into space. She would converse with whomever approached the table but she, mostly, sat quietly alone. I understand that someone her age can't really "schmooze" the way someone younger can. But, I still felt bad for her.
It wasn't until a few days later I discovered Frank was her husband. What I witnessed that day added what I read in this article makes me very sad indeed.

We must have different Gods. My God said "do to others what you would have them do to you". Your God seems to have said "My Way or the Highway".
