This is sad to me. Partially because he is a distant cousin, but mainly because Alzheimers SUCKS, and while many of the younger crowd may not appreciate it, he was a prolific songwriter with some damned good songs!

Nothing wrong with Wichita Lineman.

His voice was so clear and warm....

I saw his 60 Minutes interview about his current touring, how courageous. The care his daughter showed him on stge was so touching
