We just heard that sad news!  I always liked Glen Campbell and his music.  He wrote and sang so many good songs.  He was really something else on TV too.  I loved watching his show.  Sad day!

Patti4me,
Yes, it is a sad day indeed. He will certainly be missed. I loved his voice and he was a tremendously talented songwriter as well.

I remember listening to him with my grandmother. Think this was first taste of country music I encountered and still love it.

I heard this on the news earlier he fought the good fight and now he is in no more pain and will be greatly missed. Sympathy and prayers for his family and friends at this time may he rest in peace

I saw Glenn Campbell in concert several times when I was young.  He put on a good show.
Have a wonderful day!
