    Here’s my thought, no one will ever be Conway again there was only one, but bless his family Michael and Tre out there keeping his memory alive and singing the songs for us. I grew up on Conway and Loretta saw them many times big part of my life and memories so I thank them for trying and not sounding too bad. I feel it all comes from their heart.

    When I was in the 5th grade Conway came to the boarding school I was in. There he was made the honorary Chief of the Choctaws. I performed a song in sign language for him. My kid brother was photographed walking beside him.

    I can hear Conway in his voice. Conway was a one in a million kind of singer, though. I got to see him in concert and got to meet him once at Twitty City. Got my picture taken with him but somehow that photo was lost during moves and a divorce. So glad Tre and Mike are keeping Conway's music alive. ❤

    I love that Tre and Tayla PAY TRIBUTE TO and DO NOT TRY TO IMITATE their Grandparents. They obviously are not as good as the Legendary Icons (no offense intended...just stating my opinion), but the love they have for their Grandparents far outweighs the vocalizations...and that's what makes these two so great in and of themselves. Keep up the good work! Loretta appreciates it, and I know Conway would appreciate it, too!
