"" PALO CEDRO, California — When Merle
Haggard passed away Wednesday on his 79th birthday, it really came as no surprise to his family. According to his son, Ben Haggard, his father told the family a week ago that “he was gonna pass on his birthday, and he wasn’t wrong.” Haggard’s son posted an emotional picture on Facebook that showed his hand on his father’s hand just before he died. “A (sic) hour ago he took his last breath surrounded by family and friends,” Ben Haggard wrote on Facebook. “He loved everything about life and he loved that everyone of you gave him a chance with his music. He wasn’t just a country singer. He was the best country singer that ever lived.”" http://fox8.com/2016/04/07/merle-haggards-son-shares-emotional-picture-of-dads-final-moments/ |
