No reason given, she has been looking very sick on Larry's Country Dinner for the last year, was not on the last show, which is taped 3 months in advance. She will be missed.

Would you ping the Prayer Warriors.

Probably shows more being out of the music scene I guess... but this guy came to mind... (past in 1999, autobiographical author of A Christmas Story)...

We had a chance to see her perform several years back. She gave a really good show. I have always enjoyed listening to her.

So sad. Her greatest hit, in my opinion, was “Satin Sheets”.

I went to Nashville twice back in the mid 1990s and went to the Opry both times. Got to see Jean along with Hank Snow, Bashful Brother Oswald, Porter Wagoner, Grandpa Jones, Bill Monroe, and Little Jimmy Dickens, among many others. Feel glad that I got to see those legends in person who are now in “Hillbilly Heaven” with all of the others.

RIP Jean Shepard. We enjoyed her singing over the years and recently when she appeared on the RFDTV channel.

Satisfied Mind; one of the best country songs ever, I believe her version was the first one to be charted. Porter Waggoner sings a great version too.

Sad,   RIP.

Trying to remember, Jean Shepherd may be the “Bakersfield Sound”, an early version of it, she was born in OK but raised in California.
