It has a newfound meaning now that “The Possum” has moved on. Singer George Jones passed away April 26 at age 81.
Jones goes on to sing, “They placed a wreath upon his door/Soon they’ll carry him away/He stopped loving her today...”
Jones is sure to have many wreaths placed upon his door, but music fans will never stop loving him. Jones was a country music legend, with hits spanning five decades, appearing on 168 charting singles, a legacy cemented in time.

I appreciated Jones’ traditional country sound most when I look back at his career. He never gave into the commercialization of the genre, something that has overtaken the country music business today.

Let me answer that question for you, George, about who’s gonna fill your shoes? Many will try, few will come close, but only you could walk in them. RIP, Possum.
