RICKY SKAGGS’ thoughts on naomi judd’s passing
“I was thinking about Sunday’s Hall of Fame induction for The Judds and how excited they must be feeling when I received the news about Naomi’s passing. It hit me so hard, and I could hardly believe it. I told my wife Sharon and she burst into tears. All we could think about was Wynonna and Ashley. I’ve known them all for so long. It’s heartbreaking. Pray for their loss. Another sad day for Country Music.” —Ricky Skaggs
