"Snowman" Jerry Reed- RIP 71 years old

I remember that movie so well. Clear as can be. One of my top 20 ever. I also remember that my mom and I made a sign for a concert for Jerry Reed when he came to play the Fayette County Memorial Center show one 4th of July. Jerry saw it, read it, and called it out right after he sang the song "East Bound and Down". Now every Tuesday, today included and it has been this way for the past year and a half, I get in my truck around lunch time and I sing that song as I drive east to Rocky Mount NC.

I remember my parents talking about famous people that had just died, people that I had never ever heard of, and thinking...they are OLD. I guess that I am old too then.


Keep your football on the peddle folks!
