I read just now that Merle Haggard has passed away. My parents absolutely loved his music and my childhood soundtrack included every one of his songs. The song below isn't one of his more famous hits like Okie From Muskogee or Working Man's Blues, but I can still hear my dad's voice singing along to Roses in the Winter....



Today was his birthday, and his son said on his FB page that Merle had told him a week ago that he would pass on his birthday. I guess somehow he knew.

RIP and thank you for all the music, Mr. Haggard.
