    I can remember my Grandfather listening to Merle Haggard in the car when we would go on long trips he would have his cassette tape in a tape that would hold about twelve cassettes some of them would be of him singing in churches with a lot of old songs in paperback books that later went in to some of the songbooks that we sing out of today in Churches together today I miss my Grandfather’s deep voice

    Holiday Inn, Eau claire, wis. 1971. I was a huge fan of Merle Haggard at the time and had I think every record he put out up to that time. Merle was doing a show in town and staying at the Holiday Inn. I was closing the bar and ringing out the till, when I noticed a very familiar figure walking through the dining room. Excitedly, I approached him and said, 'Mr. Haggard'. With that he turned around and said he was looking for his room but had gotten turned around. I told him there was no one in the bar, and I would be proud to buy him a drink. "I could sure use one," he replied. With that we went into the dim lit bar, I poured him a triple shot of Crown Royal, and we had a great conversation for about a half hour. One of the highlights of my life!

    This was the most tear jerking funeral I have ever watched. The whole service was so touching to my heart as I have listened to Merle’s music for many years & enjoyed it so much. I know Merle passed April 6th 2016 a day I will never forget, I thought he would live forever, his music will, I was so sad the tears ran down my cheeks. I’m 84 years old so you know I heard many of his songs. He was the best of the best, can’t believe it’s been seven years since he left us, but I still listen to him every single day, love ya Hag, see ya soon. RIP till we meet again. 😢❤

      I know how you feel. I was actually stunned when I heard the news. I didn't even know he was sick. And what you said about him living forever, man I never ever had a thought that some day he'd be gone. Someone with his enormous talent and likeability doesn't come a long more than once in several lifetimes. He was such an important part of my life. So many good memories. I was fortunate to see him live once. What a performance that was. Miss ya man.

Merle Haggard was with us, even though he was no longer living. It was perfect!

Some of the first songs that I learned on the guitar as a young teenager were songs that you were singing on the little AM radio that sat on our kitchen counter. And now, to hear the testimonies, to see and hear a reading from your well-worn Bible, at times with tears in my eyes, is all such a heartwarming blessing.

    This is a shock I stumbled on, Merle passed away,Oh my God, a man who has given me joy, comfort and peace through his songs. I thank you and if my life prolong a little more I would listen to your songs as if you are still here singing. Sing with the angels Merle and when we look up into the skies we would see you there.

    A beautiful tribute to the greatest singer/songwriter in the history of country music. I am so thankful for all of you who have posted all of these great Merle Haggard songs, pictures, videos of this awesome man. I think of him everyday, listen to his music everyday, miss him everyday. He was one of a kind, he will never be replaced, the very essence of a true ICON.

    What a blessing. Oftentimes Merle, brought tears with his music as the Lord, used him to spread the Gospel.
    Just A Closer Walk With Thee, is one of those.

    As a child. I grew up alone with few friends. And I always turned to music . Music brought me peace and hope for a better life. Merle was my favorite singer. I always listen to his music. At a time when it was not cool. Every one my age liked rock and roll. But I stood strong. And Merle Haggard was and still is my favorite singer. Merle Haggard could do it all. He was a singer a writer. And one heck of a guitar picker. I wish I had one quarter of the talent Merle had. But so do million's of other's. I'm sure Merle Haggard is walking with God to night. God Bless You Merle. I will never forget you, Thomas, C
