Today we were blown away in country music land at the loss of a legend of country, Jerry Reed. some people who don't know him in country music may remember him in the role of coach red in the adam sandler movie 'the waterboy'.. Jerry died of complications from emphysema. He was 71.. Jerry will me missed..

I can not speel how I feel.
And I can not understand why nobody have paid any attention to this thread??

I mourn the loss.

May he rest in peace in heaven.
