Oh, man. That really hits hard. I never met her, but I was a fan, and she really seemed like the real deal.

Maybe Jessi needs her own thread.

I only knew of her from the different shows she was on and like mentioned, she seemed like a very real and likeable.

Not the most famous but a bright light that left this world too early. I met and worked with Haley a few years ago before the American Idol gig.

Her sister Effney is a Set Decorator and Haley was always laughing and smiling when we worked, a real spunky "hippie chick" who seemed to be going places. RIP Haley.

Sorry to hear about this. I've had a "Hi, How are you" t-shirt for years which I wear all the time.

Liked his songs. His quote, below, puts his life in perspective for me. Decent fellow, IMO.

“I’m gonna stop when I’m rich, and I don’t think that’s ever gonna happen. For some reason, I missed the boat when it comes to the big money. I don’t know what happened, you know? I’m not really getting rich out here. But I look at it like this: The kids aren’t in jail, they’re not in rehab, nobody’s wrecked the car this week and there’s still milk in the refrigerator. I’m having a good month.” (Emphasis, mine.)
