R.I.P, Sir. You were a big part of the soundtrack of my childhood.

Loved that voice.

This one was always my favorite by him.

Mom is saddened by his passing. This is by far her favorite.

The last farewell

 

[Bald1]

Durham Town and Last Farewell were always my favorites. As a kid I’d ride around with my dad in his pickup listening to his greatest hits cassette tape. I always thought his songs were sad and very moving. His whistling was pretty amazing too.

He made a place for himself...

...very pleasant voice and pleasing style. Sorry he's gone but we have his recordings. Sadly, we are running out of balladeers.
