Every year, for 36 years, he came to indianapolis to perform "Back Home Again in Indiana" before the start of the 500 race. May he Rest in Peace.

aerialbridge Posted December 2, 2017 Share #10 Posted December 2, 2017 RIP, Jim and Gomer, he's left the stage but never to be forgotten. Now, he'll be hanging out with Bing, Andy, Perry, Robert, Burl, and a couple of guys named Frank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doyler Posted December 3, 2017 Share #11 Posted December 3, 2017 Had seen the notice on the news feed the other day. The article said he really didn't care for acting that much and preffered to be an intertainer/singer. He was a very genuine and humble person and will be remembered. These clips bring back memories of simpler times and watching the re-runs after school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

644td Posted December 3, 2017 Share #14 Posted December 3, 2017 He was from my home town of Sylacauga Alabama. The museum here in town has a big display in his honor. He did not come home but a few times a year, I guess living in Hawaii was a lot nicer. He will be missed. Marty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
