He had a brilliant career and was a Rhodes Scholar, wonderful singer, songwriter, actor and writer and he's left a beautiful legacy we can cherish forever. The Highwaymen changed the face of country music and we'll never see a group like them again. That only leaves Willie Nelson, aged 91, as the last man standing. ♥♥♥♥
