I have been listening to Buck and his daughters since the mid 70s. They used to come to the Kentucky Fried Chicken bluegrass festival in Louisville where I heard them a few years in a row!
I have always loved their music! |

Sad news indeed. The Whites were one of the top class family acts of Country Music.
My prayers and condolences to Sharon, Cheryl and their families.

Dear Friends,
This is a very sad story once again! He was a remarkable gentleman who embraced Country Music and handed out a tremendous inspiration for followers, because of his style of music and his strong faith.
He and his family delivered beautiful country music in a lovely traditional way that thousands enjoyed and thus sadly we have lost another great interpretor of the music we all loved.
Best wishes to all his fans and my grief extends to his lovely daughters and their families at this very sad time.James Taylor fae Scotland Slange! |

Mr. Buck White's visitation took place yesterday at the Spring Hill Funeral Home in Nashville. There was an hour and a half waiting line outside of friends there to say goodbye to Buck. Today, Mr. Buck's memorial was held at the Grand Ole Opry House. The entire proceeding was posted on Vimeo and is well worth watching. The memorial begins @ 21:50.

Buck White always had a smile on his face. It was his very special gift. The President of Nashville Local #257, David Pomeroy said it best:
"Rest in Peace, Buck White. You were loved by many and had a wonderful impact on countless people’s lives through your music and your example of a life well lived. Thank you, sir,"
