I thought there was something going on with the ole Possum. My normal radio station said something about George as I climbed in the truck but could not hear them well. Then they played "Who's gonna fill their shoes" and I wondered, (A) Why I heard a Dj's voice on a station you rarely hear a Dj on and (B) why were they playing George Jones. I kinda suspected something happened.
Met Mr. Jones at the Cadillac dealer I worked at. He would come there quite often and bring Krispy Kreme donuts from time to time. Think he was one of the first ones to buy that Chevy pickup that had the look of an old 50's pickup, although I do not know what it is called. He seemed like a very nice guy, talking and laughing just like an average Joe. Sure will be missed but thankful for the music and entertainment he has given over the years. Heaven won't be the same, Johnny, Waylon, George.....
