News of Mandisa’s death shocked many people, as love and support have poured in since the news.
Danny Gokey, also a former American Idol contestant, said he was devastated to hear about the sudden loss of Mandisa.
“Not only did we connect over being American Idol alumni—we had a great time on the road doing several tours together,” said Danny in a post on social media. “Her joy was infectious and I loved her heart to encourage people on & off stage! Mandisa you left too soon—our community will never be the same without you.”
Mandisa wrote about her struggles with depression in her book, Out of the Dark: My Journey through the Shadows to Find God’s Joy, released in 2022.
