He was a very nice guy. He wasn't supposed to be on the plane that day. Another country singer was supposed to be on the plane that day but had a family emergency. Hawkshaw gave him his plane ticket to fly commercial so he could get home quicker. That's the kind of person he was. God bless him.
There is the great Hawkshaw. I miss him so much. His son"s are both tall & handsome like him. They can both be so proud of their Dad. Just like they have been their Mom also. They have his voice.❤
Deserves to be in the Hall of Fame!
As does Cowboy Copaa.

Yeah, that was Charlie Walker at that time.
Just goes to show you never know how things will go. Sometimes great, other times really sad.
Awesome singer. Nice guy.
I grew up on him and a lot of others that sang in the 40s - 60s. Great music!

I love Porter Waggoner. I know why my Momma had a crush on him. Thank you all.
He passed away on this day in 1963. His wife was pregnant with their second child. RIP.
