What a legend. It’s sad that he was taken from us. So far we’ve lost Kenny Rogers, Joe Diffe and now Charlie Daniels. I hate 2020. Great music.

The memorial service and visitation were both very honoring and peaceful. An extreme opposite from everything else going on. God bless the Daniels family.

I’m not a religious person myself, but this funeral service really hit home.
I hope Charlie Daniels has found his peace.

A truly great man and a wonderful memorial service. Vince singing Go Rest High On That Mountain is always so moving. Thanks for letting us know we could watch it. The pastor quoting Charlie’s lyrics in his message was interesting, and Iloved his line that the devil went down to Georgia cuz we wasn’t welcome in Tennessee!
