    what
    a wonderful family you all are. i can't tell you how heartwarming and inviting
    both the facebook page and the website have been for all of us. How he shared
    his family and touching times with us, and his wonderful sense of humor.. his
    poetic vision, his hopes and dreams.. he dove into the world heart first ..
    with such courage and vigor -- and that reckless free spirit of his. But the
    thing is, he loved people so much that we were able to be a part of his
    journey..he shared his adventures with us in a way nobody else ever has -- from
    a panoramic view common folks would otherwise never have had a glimpse of. I've
    had front row seats to this amazing Merle World all these decades. I can't help but feel him even closer now in
    some ways.. being part of his incredible life makes it possible myself, to live
    fully in every meaningful moment he would have captured and made masterpiece
    of..

    Wonderful Merle Haggard Combo! And it was not a normal family combo for Daddy Merle, the guitar/fiddle man, was WISE!

    I can't believe that he had passed away, but I didn't see that coming from the news. I am shocked and devastated to hear the tragic death of one of the greatest country legends. I love his country music and I remember some of his favorite biggest hits: "That's The Way Love Goes", "Mama Tried", and "If We Can Make It Through December."One of my favorite biggest hit was "That's the Way Love Goes."Your legacy lives on and on. Country music also never be the same.RIP Merle Haggard
