    Met Mac Davis when I was a 17-year-old busboy at my hometown country club (1978) when he and his band played an afternoon of golf there. Believe me, he IS A VERY HUMBLE, WARM & GENEROUS MAN! CLASS ACT ALL THE WAY!

    There are 2 guys who made millions of dollars with 2 "sing along bar" songs. Kenny Rogers with "Lucille", and Mac Davis with "It's hard to be humble." If you old enough to remember those songs were played over and over again.

      I used to hear about him being in town a lot because his wife was from Wichita. I may be wrong about this, but she was the one that was "stolen" by Glen Campbell when Mac was on tour one time. Never heard her name or anything so . . .
      After all that, I always had a bad feeling about Glen Campbell. Probably bothered me longer than it did Mac. Maybe I was being a bit petty? Since I was not involved, maybe just a bit, huh? I just always felt so bad for Mac. Well, 😢 now they're both gone so I can finally let all that go for good! Ha ha! 😕

    Great company. They're probably having a great time in Heaven. I pray for the family and friends left behind to carry on. May you be comforted by His peace and rest in His salvation.

    A guy I used to work with at Radian INC in Austin used to sing this everyday, just to be funny of course. Those were the good old days. His name was Al if anyone remembers him.
