Northern Calloway-This is the guy who gave us the character of David from the Sesame Street children's show. I never realized how much singing came from him until just last year. Anyway, I just love his voice and his smile couldn't have been better. January 9, 1990 at the age of 41 is when his story came to its end.
Steve Sanders of the Oak Ridge Boys-June 10 of 1998 was his final day and a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head at the age of 45 is how it happened.
Billy Joe Royal-October 6, 2015 at the age of 73 is when we had to let go of this awesome country soul singer.
Joe Diffie-March 29, 2020 is when we had to let go of this country music legend due to an early case of the Covid sickness.
Hal Ketchum-November 23, 2020 is the day that this country music legend went on due to Alzheimer's Disease.
