    I recall hearing a DJ relay a story about Haggard's mother. After achieving success she was asked "Aren't you proud of you son for his accomplishment?" Her response can only be classified as one of a true honest mother. She said "I have 3 children and I'm proud of them all".
    A true mom if ever there was one!

    I am glad that Merle’s mother lived long enough to see all the success that he had and the pardon that he received from Governor Reagan. Life in this cruel world is sweet - every once in awhile.

      everyone has done wrong, some more then others. But if you want true honest music, then you need to give a listen to "MR. MERLE HAGARD"!!. He did it all, "right and wrong, paid his dues, paid for his mistakes and left us with some of the "GREATEST COUNTRY MUSIC".....there is or ever will be. If you doubt that....just give a listen to any brand of music today....God has him now and he is safe and at peace.....his last song will break your heart......"I'm tired of it all......we love you Merle.

    This concert was in Fresno, CA on 5/04/1984, Flossie Haggard, Merle's mother would pass away on 7/07/1984, just 64 days after this concert, that's his older sister Lillian sitting next to Merle's mother. It had to mean so much to Merle from that day forward!

    Ben Haggard’s voice is special. It’s like his father’s but it his own, too, and in a very pleasing way. I don’t want to go overboard, but in his voice is every bit as great as his dad’s because of its deep, resonant, melodic sound. Classic country!

    In meiner frühen Jugend in 1950er Jahren hörte ich jeden Tag mit Begeisterung nachmittags auf AFN Munich Country- Musik. Jetzt mit 83 Jahren habe ich Merle Haggard entdeckt. Dafür bin ich dankbar. Seine Stimme und die Geschichte in seinen Liedern rühren an meine Seele und ich muß oft weinen. Merle Haggard on my mind. Ruhe in Frieden!
