Today the Big E would've turned 81.
I'm going to give his memory a minute of silence and then throw some Emmons into the player and... well, probably cry a bit.
I miss my friend and saddle pal, Buddy Emmons.

| Some people were born to be Doctors -Truck Drivers - Welders -- Big E was born to be a STEEL PLAYER. He could say more with 50 notes in a song than a lot of people do with 500. I also miss him every day, what a gift he was. LONG LIVE THE KING. PH |

Well said, Pat. Couldn't have said it better. We will never be able to repay the debt we owe him.

| It was posted that Buddy passed on July 21st. Thats my birthday and a sad day every year for me as I think about the master and my idol. I am eternally grateful for his gifts to the world. |
