Despite his struggle with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, he’s still rehearsing, refusing to sit. “Country music deserves a standing goodbye,” he said quietly. Rumor has it George Strait, Carrie Underwood, and Luke Bryan will join him under the Tennessee stars. Those who’ve seen him lately say there’s something holy about his calm — like a man who’s already made peace with forever. When that curtain falls, Nashville won’t just lose a singer. It’ll lose the heartbeat of its golden years.
