I met him years ago in Afghanistan. I sat and had dinner with him at the chow hall at Bagram Air Base. We talked about our kids and general life stuff. He was so humble and kind.after dinner I went to work. When I walked in from the flightline he was sitting in our break room. I spoke with him and his team and asked if he would like to go out to the jets. I brought him out and he signed one of the bombs and I got him up into the cockpit and he hand me his phone to take a picture of him in the cockpit. He was very grateful and great guy.
Such a beautiful and memorable experience for the both of you, I'm sure. Toby Keith was just a staunch, and unapologetic Patriot who loved his country and our troops fearlessly. Sadly, there aren't many stars who share the caliber of patriotism that Toby had, which is a damn shame. He was special and will be so dearly missed.
So what..Satan and the demons are believers too. Toby's life was nothing but macho egotistical worldy man behavior only sprinkled with God mentions and professions. That is Not the life a Saved surrendered to Christ life. And calling a spade and spade, the same goes for nearly all of country music. Jelly Roll a prime recent example. Country music and all its worshipers better wake up and repent of their Lukewarmness.
He was a typical "good ole boy" riding the fence of Lukewarmness for God, just like most all of country music. Don't be naive and fake you who couldn't careless about God in Christ unless you need help or to ride a wave of a Fad. Otherwise ignoring every instruction He gives to Obey His Commands or Toby or anyone (No partiality for lip service deeds to the military or for a pat on the back) will Not enter God's presence. Stop mocking God country music and all who worship it.
I have seen many entertainers pass in my 70 plus years. But haven't seen or felt the outpouring of love and respect that Toby Keith has been receiving. And well deserved. RIP and thank you for being a man we all can love and admire.
Has there ever been a bad word about Toby Keith.. no.. he was just amazing.. a true lost to true country music and my heart goes out to his Family. I've just always been a fan since the 90's.. my heart is hurting.. I can't imagine what his family is going through right now.. Love and condolences to them. Especially Tricia
The only bad words spoken about Toby came from Natalie Maines of the old Dixie Chicks. She made an unkind statement about his death. Hope no one is still going to their concerts or buying their records. They are liberal leftists.
@@mikeliner5206Natalie never said a bad thing about Toby. She criticized a song of his, not him. Too bad people made such a big deal out of it. Toby used a picture of Natalie and fused it with one of Saddam Hussein.
@@mikeliner5206cussing someone out is not the same as talking bad About someone. If you can find me any video or interview where Natalie actually said something bad about Toby, i stand corrected.
No other entertainer and musical icon has affected me like Toby Keith. Not just his musical talent, but what he represented regarding his love of family, Country, humanitarian and love of veterans like myself. Thank you Toby, for being here for those who loved you and followed you through your career. I know you are in good hands now! Namaste. From a Vietnam Era Marine Corps veteran.
Agreed, myself as well, the comments, tributes, videos are unprecedented! I have never seen another artist get the love, sadness that Toby Keith has received! I am one month older to the day than toby, we came up in similar times! I feel like I can relate to his mindset about love of family and country!
I'm 66 yrs old. A fan of not only Country music , but grew up with classic rock and roll and heavy metal. Toby stood out in my mind and heart for his passion and abilities for song writing and performing. His faith and support for the military and family is what I will remember about him.
@@DZCamaro-kz2vdSo TRUE Americans trash others for exercising their FREE SPEECH? I don't think that's being a Patriot. That's being a Faketriot. Looks like Karma got eem! 😂😂😂😂 Bye, Toby! ✌️
I remember my son when he was 3 or so, singing " I want to be a cowboy" wearing a cowboy hat and boots. Now he has 2 boys...seems like yesterday. Mr Keith will never be forgotten.
I was there, serving in Mosul, Iraq 2004, when I saw this wonderful man perform some great music for us. I will always remember how energetic and kind he was to us. He was the ONLY celebrity with the courage to visit us in a warzone while we were being attacked. Everyone else stayed in Kuwait, were there was zero chance of danger. I will always admire this man for his courage. Til Valhalla, Mr. Keith.
Absolutely, the BEST TRIBUTE ever on UA-cam! Carrie Underwood, you are pure class! This tribute had an old man in tears from the start to the end! Toby's son is a chip off the old block! What a well spoken tribute to a great father!
Losing Toby, was like losing a member of my own family. He was the kind of person that everyone felt a kinship with. What an awesome singer and a true patriot. My heart is literally aching over losing him. R.I.P. Toby Keith… You will truly be missed!
Me too! Can't stop crying. You could just see he was a good person from hearing bits about him. Love his music from the first song I heard. His song Wanna talk about Me used to make me laugh every time I heard it. Big loss but I'm so glad for his faith. I've cried myself into a headache.
I've been to countless country music concerts. Toby Kieth was always the very best. I was a Paramedic and went to his show with my partner and other coworkers. There were so many First Responders and Veterans in the audience. He touched my heart when he acknowledged us and thanked us for our service. If only Toby Kieth knew how much that meant to us. I'm sure Toby is in the presence of our Lord and Savior. Toby Kieth will always be remembered as a kind, humble soul. Prayers to his family.
I saw Toby Keith in 1994 in concert in Johnson city tennessee I live in Kingsport, Tennessee it a honor to hear him sing......Toby Keith rest in peace you will be missed country music will never be the same my heart goes out to you an your family!!!!!!!!!!
I can’t think of any other famous person whose passing has upset me more. I’ve shed tears every day as if I knew him personally. Now I’m seeing just how great he really was. Gone too soon.
Rest easy Toby. You made a difference in this world with your music, obviously through your support of our military and your patriotism. Thank you to your precious family for sharing you with us. Prayers for comfort and peace to your family.
It’s been a hard week ! We loss a good man ! He fought a courageous fight all the way to his last days ! He will always be in our hearts ! We are feeling a lot of sorrow and hurt of his passing but he’s in the arms of Jesus and free from the pain ! It’s just sad that he’s gone and I know his family are having a hard time ! I wish them all the best and the strength to help them through and healing . He will forever be remembered and not forgotten ! RIP Toby we love you and will miss you prayers to his family and loved ones ! ❤🕊️🕊️🙏🙏✝️
In reference to the tour that Brooks and Dunn was talking about, I was there. In 2001, I was fortunate enough to attend their Steers and Stripes concert. Brooks & Dunn, Toby Keith, Montgomery Gentry, and Keith Urban. It's one of my most favorite concerts I've ever been to. Rest in peace, Toby Keith.
This is one of the best tributes on Utube to Toby Keith. It praises the man, husband, father, and singer, plus much more. Thank you for posting it. Much respect for Toby Keith.
Love Toby Keith and how he kept it real. A true man that loved his family unconditionally. He was a true American that loved his country. Toby's music will live forever in our heart's! God bless his family and friends during this most difficult time. May they know in their hearts that they will be together once again on the otherside. God Bless!
God rest your soul i really loved your music and my dad too he passed away about ten years ago and battled diabetes really bad i forget what his blood sugar was when he passed away but the hospital staff said it was the highest they ever seen he was a great dad and husband to my mom me and my dad always loved listening to his music together rest in peace you too God bless everybody
My son and I own a small cafe in North Collins, New York. We will forever remember Toby Keith stopping in on his Indian Motorcycle and having a burger at 8:00 am. He had done a concert a couple nights before in Niagara falls and was heading to another in Michigan we made small talk by me saying "Has anyone ever told you you look like Toby Keith." He laughed and said "that's a good one Toby Keith " we enjoyed his short stay and found out later he was friends with a man who owned the East Eden Tavern in Eden, New York. We never asked for a picture or a autograph. Just let him be him. Enjoyed this moment with him very much. Bless his family in their sorrow. He will never be forgotten. A wonderful human being.
I was on my way to work at 6:15am eastern standard time. I had to pull over on the side of the road and cry. He sang to me when I was down and I danced in my living room singing his songs at the top of my lungs and no I can not sing. But that morning, I felt like I lost a friend. One day I will hope to sing with him in heaven. Rest In Peace @tobykeith. You will be missed as friend, father and most of all as a husband/soulmate to your wife. See you on the other side.
I am appreciating the goodness people have shared about their times with Toby Keith! He was a real man! He and his wife were all into their love and the love of their children, and their extended families! God has him now and he will be pain free! ❤🙏
Toby May you have a speedy journey to Jesus's Loving Arms and RIP the words to your music healed my broken heart so many times. God Bless 🙏. From 77 yrs old lady from NH.
I was lucky enough to see Toby live many times. The one undeniable fact is, Toby loved and appreciated his fans. He was truly a talented man with a huge heart. I’m totally saddened that a man who had such a zest for life and passion for helping others, suffered so horribly for too long. Cancer is an absolute beast. We will miss you big dog.
Heartbroken. His music was the soundtrack to some of the best days and some of the worst in the 90s. I love him so much ❤️ I always loved that he stuck to his beliefs and values and wasn’t scared to be who he was. His support of our military was unwavering, unflinching, dedicated & strong. It meant a lot. I saw him three or four times in concert in SA. He always brought in some of the wounded from BAMC and ALWAYS paid tribute to the military. When Courtesy of the Red White and Blue came out & he sang it, it blew.the.roof.off. It was amazing and I’ll never forget it. Same with the Taliban song. His “bus songs” were bomb. I, I’m just sad. I figured it was coming, but I always had hope. Toby Keith. You were a force of nature. You believed in yourself, you believed in us. I loved your cheekiness, your strength. Your patriotism and your genuine love for this country and those who defend it. You were an Oklahoma country boy down to your core and I loved that. Your kindness and generosity came from your heart, your soul. You never forgot where you came from, it was part of who you were. It shone through your music, your deeds. The world is a darker place today, but another star shines bright in the night sky. I can’t even pick a favorite song to post in tribute. There are so many that are my favorite. You were my favorite. I love music and I’ve often thought about what his music has meant to me over the years. His words and music evoked such a wide range of emotions. He made things fun, people laughed and smiled as he sang. He sang while I sat with tears and heartache and made me FEEL them so deep that I could let them go. He sang me to courage and hope and helped me remember who the heck I am. He sang me down the highways and sang me into his visions of love and cowboys & rodeos. He united us all in our love of country and our military. I saw him 3 times as a Soldier in San Antonio. It was a shared experience for all of us. We felt the love and support. Really FELT it. It wasn’t just a bunch of words someone speaks. He was walked amongst our hearts in deed and action. He loved and he cared.
I am heartbroken with great sadness ...by the loss of this great man. I Love your music, your integrity as a human being, your love for this country ...May God give peace and resignation to his family...You will never be forgotten. ..Your music stays with us. Thank you Toby Keith!
Rest In Heavenly Peace, Toby Keith, Kiss MyGirl for me again when you meet her up in Heaven. I won tickets and a limo ride to see this wonderful man while driving my children to school one morning on the radio. It was the first time I had ever tried doing anything like that. "I was so proud to be the WINNER!" The kids didn't believe me of course until they heard me moments later as the station announced and replayed the call. I was still crying because my oldest daughter's birthday was approaching and life was a bit rough still adjusting to the new life of being a single mom so funds were very tight and this was my girls favorite singer then. This was one of my most treasured memories with Lexus and Kaden. My girls and I spent most of the night with a group of college boys that were right in front of us. They had taken a liking to my girls being so small and knowing every lyric to each song Toby sang "my girls" smiled together for hours that night. The boys placed my girls onto their shoulders so they could see every move Toby was making on stage. That was a lovely moment for me with my children and now a cherished memory for Lexus and me with Kaden. Thank you, Toby Keith, for that wonderful night for my girls, your super performance and that beautiful memory that will always remain close to our hearts of you and Kaden. Rest In Peace the world lost a great artist, a wonderful man and Heaven has gained one more of the best. "The world will miss you, Toby!"
He was a true gift to this world. Most of us never met him, but he left a lasting imprint on millions of people. Beautiful, amusing and heartfelt songs that will outlast all of us. God bless you for Eternity @TobyKieth my deepest condolences to Tricia and your family. RIP
Still sitting here crying my eyes out every time I think about it ,it’s absolutely unbelievable. So much of his music got me through such hard times I’ve listened to it in my car. I have nothing but his top hits playing in my car now since 1993 everybody thought I was weird because I always had his CD in my car that’s all I listen in my car. I loved his strong voice, and I still do, we will never forget. Godspeed my friend. I know every song by heart I sing to my donkeys and my horses songs only from Toby Keith. He was so much a part of my life his music it’s like I knew them through the music.
I always have a Toby Keith cd playing in my car. My grandkids know not to ask to hear anything else. I've cried so much since his passing. I still can't believe he's gone.
I saw TK with Brooks & Dunn and Keith Urban so many times that I have lost count. He really was larger than life. I think the thing that will always be his legacy was his ability to unite us during the days/years following 9/11. His steadfast presence, true patriotism, his art, his voice and the fact that he was tough as shit inspired us all. He reminded us all that we are *family*. We really felt like we could put a boot in the ass of anyone who dare come at us. I wish we had that same unity now when we so desperately need it. Rest easy Big Man. Your pain and suffering are over now. And Heaven just got a lively awakening!! Every Solo cup raised from here going forward will be in your honor. 🍻
I never got to see a live concert but I've always loved his music. It truly is hard to believe that he's gone. But someday I'll get to hear that voice and see the man singing the praises....in person....to our Lord and Savior. God bless the family in this difficult time. Prayers and love sent their way. Rest in Peace Toby Keith.❤🙏
My eyes fill with tears everytime I see an article on him. It most certainly doesn’t seem real. Dang I love his music, of course never met him, but felt like I knew him. May God Bless his family. We all love him, but not like his family did. I can’t imagine what they are going through. My prayers are with them!❤
Wonderful person my Baby Sister loved Toby she Went to his Concerts God Called her home 2019 of Cancer She is Celebrating him being in Heaven, Heaven just Got another Angel
He was an awesome amazing guy. I liked all of his songs. He didnt take no bull crap off anyone. Prayers for his family. It was 2 yrs ago in January when I lost my boyfriend and itll be 2 yrs this coming May since my daughter passed away.
So sorry for your losses. I feel ya, lost my 35yr old son almost 4yrs ago and my husband has been diagnosed since Oct '21 with terminal cancer. God bless you and yours! ❤
Will 🙏 always miss you😢Been listening to you for a long time😢Your work on earth here is done. RIP BIG DOG. May God Bless you and your family and friends and fans.😢
Music has lost a true ICON and America a real patriot. Thanks for all you did for the troops and our veterans, RIP Toby this old sailor has shed a few tears for you & your family. FLY NAVY!!!
Toby performed for us in northern Iraq in 2004 when Mozule was still a very dangerous place. Firefights and in-comming mortar attacks were a daily occurrence. During his performance, he gave us a few minutes of solace that maybe only a letter from home or a quick phone call with would provide while deployed. Later, I learned that he not only visited the troops in both Iraq and Afghanistan, but did so on a regular basis. This spoke volumes of his respect and love for our military. Personally, there is nothing better than country music but when you risk your life to visit troops in active combat zones to show you're support and admiration on a regular basis... well, you have set yourself apart as a true patriot, military supporter, and all American baddass! Here's to you my friend. May heavenly father pull you up in short order and may he bless your family. Patriots like you are an anomaly. Rest easy Cowboy.
I never had the pleasure to meet Toby Keith or even went to his shows but I grew up listening to his awesome music he maybe gone from this world but he will never be forgotten I just can't wrap my head around this I just can't believe that he's gone his music really touched my heart all the beautiful lyrics really has meaning toby keith was and is a great singer and a awesome human being and a great american and supporting all the service men and women he's really gonna be missed thank u for everything u accomplished in ur life and for giving us ur amazing songs ur a Tru inspiration to us all may God be with the family and friends and the million fans he had around the world We love u Mr Toby Keith
🙏🙏🙏🥺prayers for your family, he is missed bigtime . A fan from the beginning & always will be .We were 405 till changed to 580 Ponca City, Ok. 😇😇😇 in Heaven now…
Thank you God for your only Son Jesus Christ. Toby out of pain .His faith took him to heaven where Jesus met him with open arms. Sending the family air hugs and prayers 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you, you did a great job with this. I've been to close to 50 Toby concerts all over the western states. Every one totally amazing. He carried me through tough times during my divorce. Still have a lot of memorabilia including a signed hat. I wear a Toby scarf around my neck while riding my motorcycle. It's from the "Unleashed Album Tour". Today my heart is heavy, as his death at 62 is a stark reminder that life can change or end so quickly. Live life every day as if it were your last. Love as if life depended on it. RIP Toby, You Shoulda Been a Cowboy....
Toby Keith was a "kindred spirit". I wish the world had many more like him. We've lost a great man. And I would loved to have met him. I know we would have been friends. My heart and prayers go out to his family and friends.I know he is singing with the angels. Rest in peace,Toby! ❤️🙏🏻
Toby Keith had such a generous heart. His Kids Korral in OKC for kids fighting cancer. Contributed to my daughters life. On a late night visit he made there with Sammy Hagar he had me go get my kids who were the only ones up. That picture went viral. He will be missed.
I'm still crying. Out of ALL Musicians, Toby Keith IS & ALWAYS WILL BE MY FAVORITE. HEAVEN HAS ANOTHER TRUE ANGEL. WE LOVE YOU Toby Keith. Rest In Piece Angel🕊♥️🕊
What a Great gift from God. Once in a lifetime. How lucky and Blessed we all are for having a Person like Toby on this earth for the time that he was. Prayers and love for his family. RIP
There are so many of us that never knew Toby but loved his larger-than-life persona, his music and love for America, his sincere patriotism and loyalty to the military. Surely his new gig is with Jesus and the Angels. 💖
I’m riding this in behalf of my father, big country, western lover, and he was a black man and he loved his music. He’s gone now as well they’ll need in heaven I’m sure and they can play all of them for my dad up in heaven, he just had a birthday so he’s anxious to meet you up there and I appreciate all the love and joy that you brought to my father. God bless your family and my prayers go out to them. I live in Denver Colorado and my name is Earline Dotson rest in peace
That's not the word for it. I have been crying since he died. I can't stop crying. We lost a good person in life. All these good people are dying on. I feel sorry for his family. I know what it's like to lose. I lost my granddaughter at 8 I lost my daughter 23 and a loss places that had 27 and I can't stand it. God bless the Stanley we launched. Really good person, and how do you like me now? We love you toby keith we love you❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Bitd, Toby stopped into my local watering hole.. Rhino's bar, in Plainwell Michigan, before his show at the Allegan County Fair.. After he left, there was always a signed B&W photo of him, in front of my regular seat, on the mirror, below the TV's... Great dude, will be well missed.. moreso, than that ol'bar.
This hurts so bad.😥 Toby is a True American Country Singer, one who felt Patriotism for America 🇺🇸. God Bless Toby and his family. 🙏 Toby earned his wings 🪽 and is now in heaven with Our Lord and Savior. RIP 🙏❤️🙏
A Beautiful and Heartfelt Tribute Stelen! You have your father's ability to write words in a manner that Speak and are not just Read! Words from the Heart! True Words and Well Said! Regards and Respect! True Sympathy! Paul
Always followed Tobys music as we were close in age and always wanted to shake his hand. We both ended up with cancer at above the same time in our life and Tobys music was always their to help out. Im still fighting cancer and dont know when the end will be but maybe onday I might get that hand shake from a true American patriot. RIP Toby.
I met him years ago in Afghanistan. I sat and had dinner with him at the chow hall at Bagram Air Base. We talked about our kids and general life stuff.

So what..Satan and the demons are believers too. Toby's life was nothing but macho egotistical worldy man behavior only sprinkled with God mentions and professions. That is Not the life a Saved surrendered to Christ life.
And calling a spade and spade, the same goes for nearly all of country music. Jelly Roll a prime recent example.

Stop mocking God country music and all who worship it.
.I chauffeured his wife, daughter and sister in law. Such wonderful, kind people. I thank God for the honor and privilege of meeting them
Sounds like they were blessed to have you as well. I was a big fan. But I never made it to a show. Our country will miss him greatly 😢.

We Have Another Patriot in Heaven and I would say he’s probably sitting and talking with Jesus. We still can save America
In reference to the tour that Brooks and Dunn was talking about, I was there. In 2001, I was fortunate enough to attend their Steers and Stripes concert. Brooks & Dunn, Toby Keith, Montgomery Gentry, and Keith Urban. It's one of my most favorite concerts I've ever been to. Rest in peace, Toby Keith.
Since his passing I’ve heard so many songs I’ve never heard before by him and the truly are some of the greatest
It was a privilege to have known you through your songs.❤
This is one of the best tributes on Utube to Toby Keith. It praises the man, husband, father, and singer, plus much more. Thank you for posting it. Much respect for Toby Keith.
I wish there was so much more we can do to honor Toby Keith. He was such a big inspiration and hero. 😢
Love Toby Keith and how he kept it real. A true man that loved his family unconditionally. He was a true American that loved his country.
Toby's music will live forever in our heart's! God bless his family and friends during this most difficult time. May they know in their hearts that they will be together once again on the otherside. God Bless!
God rest your soul i really loved your music and my dad too he passed away about ten years ago and battled diabetes really bad i forget what his blood sugar was when he passed away but the hospital staff said it was the highest they ever seen he was a great dad and husband to my mom me and my dad always loved listening to his music together rest in peace you too God bless everybody
Wel said sir ❤❤❤
My son and I own a small cafe in North Collins, New York. We will forever remember Toby Keith stopping in on his Indian Motorcycle and having a burger at 8:00 am. He had done a concert a couple nights before in Niagara falls and was heading to another in Michigan we made small talk by me saying "Has anyone ever told you you look like Toby Keith." He laughed and said "that's a good one Toby Keith " we enjoyed his short stay and found out later he was friends with a man who owned the East Eden Tavern in Eden, New York. We never asked for a picture or a autograph. Just let him be him. Enjoyed this moment with him very much. Bless his family in their sorrow. He will never be forgotten. A wonderful human being.
What a Great Memory. Thank you for sharing.
I was on my way to work at 6:15am eastern standard time. I had to pull over on the side of the road and cry. He sang to me when I was down and I danced in my living room singing his songs at the top of my lungs and no I can not sing. But that morning, I felt like I lost a friend. One day I will hope to sing with him in heaven. Rest In Peace @tobykeith. You will be missed as friend, father and most of all as a husband/soulmate to your wife. See you on the other side.
No greater tribute than that of his son. ❤
I am appreciating the goodness people have shared about their times with Toby Keith! He was a real man! He and his wife were all into their love and the love of their children, and their extended families! God has him now and he will be pain free! ❤🙏
Toby May you have a speedy journey to Jesus's Loving Arms and RIP the words to your music healed my broken heart so many times. God Bless 🙏. From 77 yrs old lady from NH.
I was lucky enough to see Toby live many times. The one undeniable fact is, Toby loved and appreciated his fans. He was truly a talented man with a huge heart. I’m totally saddened that a man who had such a zest for life and passion for helping others, suffered so horribly for too long. Cancer is an absolute beast. We will miss you big dog.
I still can’t believe it. I didn’t even know the man had cancer. One of my favorite country singers
Heartbroken. His music was the soundtrack to some of the best days and some of the worst in the 90s. I love him so much ❤️
I always loved that he stuck to his beliefs and values and wasn’t scared to be who he was. His support of our military was unwavering, unflinching, dedicated & strong. It meant a lot.
I saw him three or four times in concert in SA. He always brought in some of the wounded from BAMC and ALWAYS paid tribute to the military. When Courtesy of the Red White and Blue came out & he sang it, it blew.the.roof.off. It was amazing and I’ll never forget it. Same with the Taliban song. His “bus songs” were bomb.
I, I’m just sad. I figured it was coming, but I always had hope.
Toby Keith. You were a force of nature. You believed in yourself, you believed in us. I loved your cheekiness, your strength. Your patriotism and your genuine love for this country and those who defend it. You were an Oklahoma country boy down to your core and I loved that. Your kindness and generosity came from your heart, your soul. You never forgot where you came from, it was part of who you were. It shone through your music, your deeds.
The world is a darker place today, but another star shines bright in the night sky.
I can’t even pick a favorite song to post in tribute. There are so many that are my favorite. You were my favorite.
I love music and I’ve often thought about what his music has meant to me over the years. His words and music evoked such a wide range of emotions. He made things fun, people laughed and smiled as he sang. He sang while I sat with tears and heartache and made me FEEL them so deep that I could let them go. He sang me to courage and hope and helped me remember who the heck I am. He sang me down the highways and sang me into his visions of love and cowboys & rodeos. He united us all in our love of country and our military. I saw him 3 times as a Soldier in San Antonio. It was a shared experience for all of us. We felt the love and support. Really FELT it. It wasn’t just a bunch of words someone speaks. He was walked amongst our hearts in deed and action. He loved and he cared.
Toby was a one of a kind man that every man should inspire to be like! Love of God and Family first!!! 🙏❤️
Thanks for this..., his son did him such justice.
His love and respect for our military service members past and present was so genuine. He knew how grateful we should be for them!
His son sounds like a great writer too
Yep 👍
This was just as bad for me I lost my daughter from cancer ten months ago it been rough rest in peace wonderful soul 🙏
I am heartbroken with great sadness ...by the loss of this great man. I Love your music, your integrity as a human being, your love for this country ...May God give peace and resignation to his family...You will never be forgotten. ..Your music stays with us.
Thank you Toby Keith!
😭💔Love you Toby!! Rest in peace, so thankful to have met you. God Bless you!!!
I'd have to agree with Carrie Underwood We all know God must be a cowboy at heart.❤️Toby Keith will be misséd loved him he was a awesome
Rest In Heavenly Peace, Toby Keith,
Kiss MyGirl for me again when you meet her up in Heaven.
I won tickets and a limo ride to see this wonderful man while driving my children to school one morning on the radio.
It was the first time I had ever tried doing anything like that.
"I was so proud to be the WINNER!"
The kids didn't believe me of course until they heard me moments later as the station announced and replayed the call.
I was still crying because my oldest daughter's birthday was approaching and life was a bit rough still adjusting to the new life of being a single mom so funds were very tight and this was my girls favorite singer then.
This was one of my most treasured memories with Lexus and Kaden.
My girls and I spent most of the night with a group of college boys that were right in front of us.
They had taken a liking to my girls being so small and knowing every lyric to each song Toby sang "my girls" smiled together for hours that night.
The boys placed my girls onto their shoulders so they could see every move Toby was making on stage.
That was a lovely moment for me with my children and now a cherished memory for Lexus and me with Kaden.
Thank you, Toby Keith, for that wonderful night for my girls, your super performance and that beautiful memory that will always remain close to our hearts of you and Kaden.
Rest In Peace the world lost a great artist, a wonderful man and Heaven has gained one more of the best.
"The world will miss you, Toby!"
RIP you are not forgotten 🥀🥀🎶🙏🏼😢💔
WE LOVE YOU TOBY KEITH❤❤
Beautiful tribute that Toby Keith's son wrote. That everyone has written.....but his boy ......A+ TOBY KEITH
Toby was one of my favorite country singers. I will truly miss him. Glad to k ow he trusted in Jesus as I will meet him in heaven. ❤
He was a true gift to this world. Most of us never met him, but he left a lasting imprint on millions of people. Beautiful, amusing and heartfelt songs that will outlast all of us. God bless you for Eternity @TobyKieth my deepest condolences to Tricia and your family. RIP
What a sad day 😢 😞 still can't believe this 😢 still crying to 😊 we will miss you Toby Keith. Red White and Blue. . ❤🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷
R.I.P Toby Keith You've Touched The Lives Of Many You Are Missed.
Still sitting here crying my eyes out every time I think about it ,it’s absolutely unbelievable. So much of his music got me through such hard times I’ve listened to it in my car. I have nothing but his top hits playing in my car now since 1993 everybody thought I was weird because I always had his CD in my car that’s all I listen in my car. I loved his strong voice, and I still do, we will never forget. Godspeed my friend. I know every song by heart I sing to my donkeys and my horses songs only from Toby Keith. He was so much a part of my life his music it’s like I knew them through the music.
I always have a Toby Keith cd playing in my car. My grandkids know not to ask to hear anything else. I've cried so much since his passing. I still can't believe he's gone.
Rest in peace You will live on in our hearts through your wonderful music 🙏🏽🕊️❤️🤍💙
His tribute from his son says more about the man than any song he ever wrote or sang. Toby was truly a good man. Rest in Peace, brother.
Im so having a really hard time with this. God bless you Toby, rest easy in the Lord. Family, you are loved.....
And no it doesnt feel real.
Wow, such beautiful words from his son!! I'm in tears again. Thank you, CC, for this nice tribute. RIP Toby, and we will see you again one day!
I saw TK with Brooks & Dunn and Keith Urban so many times that I have lost count. He really was larger than life. I think the thing that will always be his legacy was his ability to unite us during the days/years following 9/11. His steadfast presence, true patriotism, his art, his voice and the fact that he was tough as shit inspired us all. He reminded us all that we are *family*. We really felt like we could put a boot in the ass of anyone who dare come at us. I wish we had that same unity now when we so desperately need it. Rest easy Big Man. Your pain and suffering are over now. And Heaven just got a lively awakening!! Every Solo cup raised from here going forward will be in your honor. 🍻
Wow, well said. I agree.
We need more Toby Keith's in this world not less.. This hurts. RIP Toby😢
Man, this loss hurts! Toby was one of the good ol boys, in every inch of the positive side.
I never got to see a live concert but I've always loved his music. It truly is hard to believe that he's gone. But someday I'll get to hear that voice and see the man singing the praises....in person....to our Lord and Savior. God bless the family in this difficult time. Prayers and love sent their way. Rest in Peace Toby Keith.❤🙏
Rest in Peace
Prayers for his family
Thank you for sharing your talent.
My eyes fill with tears everytime I see an article on him. It most certainly doesn’t seem real. Dang I love his music, of course never met him, but felt like I knew him.
May God Bless his family. We all love him, but not like his family did. I can’t imagine what they are going through. My prayers are with them!❤
Wonderful person my Baby Sister loved Toby she Went to his Concerts God Called her home 2019 of Cancer She is Celebrating him being in Heaven, Heaven just Got another Angel

Gone much too soon! RIP Toby Keith ❤ Prayers for his family and all that love him. ❤
Toby performed for us in northern Iraq in 2004 when Mozule was still a very dangerous place. Firefights and in-comming mortar attacks were a daily occurrence. During his performance, he gave us a few minutes of solace that maybe only a letter from home or a quick phone call with would provide while deployed. Later, I learned that he not only visited the troops in both Iraq and Afghanistan, but did so on a regular basis. This spoke volumes of his respect and love for our military. Personally, there is nothing better than country music but when you risk your life to visit troops in active combat zones to show you're support and admiration on a regular basis... well, you have set yourself apart as a true patriot, military supporter, and all American baddass! Here's to you my friend. May heavenly father pull you up in short order and may he bless your family. Patriots like you are an anomaly. Rest easy Cowboy.
I never had the pleasure to meet Toby Keith or even went to his shows but I grew up listening to his awesome music he maybe gone from this world but he will never be forgotten I just can't wrap my head around this I just can't believe that he's gone his music really touched my heart all the beautiful lyrics really has meaning toby keith was and is a great singer and a awesome human being and a great american and supporting all the service men and women he's really gonna be missed thank u for everything u accomplished in ur life and for giving us ur amazing songs ur a Tru inspiration to us all may God be with the family and friends and the million fans he had around the world We love u Mr Toby Keith

sorry for your fathers passing the country world will miss a beautiful country singer from heart 📀📀📀📀📀A true country american 📀📀📀📀📀📀📀📀📀
Thank you, you did a great job with this. I've been to close to 50 Toby concerts all over the western states. Every one totally amazing. He carried me through tough times during my divorce. Still have a lot of memorabilia including a signed hat. I wear a Toby scarf around my neck while riding my motorcycle. It's from the "Unleashed Album Tour".
Today my heart is heavy, as his death at 62 is a stark reminder that life can change or end so quickly. Live life every day as if it were your last. Love as if life depended on it.
RIP Toby, You Shoulda Been a Cowboy....
Toby Keith was a "kindred spirit". I wish the world had many more like him. We've lost a great man. And I would loved to have met him. I know we would have been friends.
My heart and prayers go out to his family and friends.I know he is singing with the angels. Rest in peace,Toby! ❤️🙏🏻
Toby Keith had such a generous heart. His Kids Korral in OKC for kids fighting cancer. Contributed to my daughters life. On a late night visit he made there with Sammy Hagar he had me go get my kids who were the only ones up. That picture went viral. He will be missed.
I'm still crying. Out of ALL Musicians, Toby Keith IS & ALWAYS WILL BE MY FAVORITE. HEAVEN HAS ANOTHER TRUE ANGEL. WE LOVE YOU Toby Keith. Rest In Piece Angel🕊♥️🕊
What a Great gift from God. Once in a lifetime. How lucky and Blessed we all are for having a Person like Toby on this earth for the time that he was. Prayers and love for his family. RIP
There are so many of us that never knew Toby but loved his larger-than-life persona, his music and love for America, his sincere patriotism and loyalty to the military. Surely his new gig is with Jesus and the Angels. 💖
I’m riding this in behalf of my father, big country, western lover, and he was a black man and he loved his music. He’s gone now as well they’ll need in heaven I’m sure and they can play all of them for my dad up in heaven, he just had a birthday so he’s anxious to meet you up there and I appreciate all the love and joy that you brought to my father. God bless your family and my prayers go out to them. I live in Denver Colorado and my name is Earline Dotson rest in peace
That's not the word for it. I have been crying since he died. I can't stop crying. We lost a good person in life. All these good people are dying on. I feel sorry for his family. I know what it's like to lose. I lost my granddaughter at 8 I lost my daughter 23 and a loss places that had 27 and I can't stand it. God bless the Stanley we launched. Really good person, and how do you like me now? We love you toby keith we love you❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Bitd, Toby stopped into my local watering hole.. Rhino's bar, in Plainwell Michigan, before his show at the Allegan County Fair.. After he left, there was always a signed B&W photo of him, in front of my regular seat, on the mirror, below the TV's... Great dude, will be well missed.. moreso, than that ol'bar.
Toby is going to be missed such an icon my heart breaks for Toby's family and country family rip toby
He’ll be missed. But he’ll be with us forever thru his music. He’s in a great place with Jesus. Waiting for us to arrive ❤
This hurts so bad.😥 Toby is a True American Country Singer, one who felt Patriotism for America 🇺🇸. God Bless Toby and his family. 🙏 Toby earned his wings 🪽 and is now in heaven with Our Lord and Savior. RIP 🙏❤️🙏

Always followed Tobys music as we were close in age and always wanted to shake his hand. We both ended up with cancer at above the same time in our life and Tobys music was always their to help out.
Im still fighting cancer and dont know when the end will be but maybe onday I might get that hand shake from a true American patriot.
RIP Toby.
