RIP Charley Pride - A music legend and entertainer

Rest In Peace Charley Pride, your body may be missing from us but your soul and your music will continue to provide joy and happiness to generations of people who will never know the sacrifices and conditions which you continued to overcome with apparent success at every turn.

Charley Pride, a country music Black superstar, dies at 86

Prayers and condolences to family and friends.

Wife & I both saddened by the loss of another class person, whose craft was there for all to hear & see.
RIP.

Should be there already as Yeager blasted a hole through the Pearly Gates for you to ease through.

George Jones sang Whose gonna fill their shoes, well nobody can fill these shoes but the music will live on forever and that is the beauty of Charlie Pride.

Talk about someone who broke through a glass ceiling.

Like many of his songs.

Rest in peace Mr. Pride.
