15 May 03 - 09:21 PM (#953478) Subject: RE: Obit: JUNE CARTER CASH From: catspaw49 I can only imagine what things are like in Nashville tonight. I was living there when Marty Robbins died and it was unbelievable....a major city becomes a little town and mourns the loss. Quite a lady and quite a character from all reports. We lived about a mile or so on down the road from their house. Never saw them but a few times, saw the emus a lot more. I'm sure their wonderful home is a different place tonight. I can only hope that this doesn't take Johnny's spirit away as well. Spaw |

15 May 03 - 10:10 PM (#953501) Subject: RE: Obit: JUNE CARTER CASH From: katlaughing Oh, sorry to be so thickheaded. This is what I'd read over in the other thread: John was admitted to the hospital on Friday as a precaution, as his health is very fragile, not to mention his older sister Louise just passed away on April 4 as well, so this is a very trying time for all concerned. He was sedated so that he would have the strength to help his family make tough decisions that are to follow. |

15 May 03 - 10:45 PM (#953517) Subject: RE: Obit: JUNE CARTER CASH From: Tweed One of the worst things about getting older (to me anyhow) is losing the people you looked up to and admired and always thought they'd be there as long as you would be. Mz.June must've been an awfully nice woman, she kept Johnny from leaving this world early on and if she'd done nothing else, that would've been enough to endear her to me forever. Bad news is.....allus so bad. Tweed |

16 May 03 - 04:27 AM (#953621) Subject: RE: Obit: JUNE CARTER CASH From: JudyR So sad. Why her? And so early. 73 isn't that old. She was so beautiful. Why is it always the good ones? This is going to be terrible for Johnny. It's too much for this man to bear. I wish I was in Nashville, too. At times like this, I want to help mourn and feel close to others in mourning. |
16 May 03 - 05:39 AM (#953640) Subject: RE: Obit: JUNE CARTER CASH From: Sandy Mc Lean It was such a great legacy. By tradition angels sing to the harp but now that will be replaced by the auto-harp. Can't you just imagine all six of the Carter Family performing together for the first time. I am sure that the Wildwood Flower never sounded so sweet! God bless you June! |

16 May 03 - 10:24 AM (#953748) Subject: RE: Obit: JUNE CARTER CASH From: Kim C There hasn't been anything in the Nashville news yet about memorials, etc. I imagine there will be some more information this evening. They had Vince Gill on the 10 o'clock news last night, I guess because he appeared with June onstage when she accepted an award for Johnny. Vince held her purse for her. ;-) I used to see Johnny and June on TV all the time when I was a little kid. The thing I remember most about them is that they always seemed to be having a good time on stage. June was funny. "Jackson" was always one of my favorites. |

16 May 03 - 12:45 PM (#953853) Subject: RE: Obit: JUNE CARTER CASH From: Mark Clark I hate these threads. I hate them because I don't want their message to be true and I hate them because I never have anything to add that either hasn't been said or is worthy of the occasion. I never got to meet her so a personal message seems out of place but I just feel bumbed. More so, perhaps, than with most. If you haven't read “Will You Miss Me When I'm Gone” by Mark Zwonitzer, get it on your summer reading list. - Mark |

16 May 03 - 02:23 PM (#953920) Subject: RE: Obit: JUNE CARTER CASH From: fsharpdim7 My prayers are for June's soul and the family. The Carter family book was 50% about Maybelle and how she raised the girls. I have great admiration for them all. John would not likely have been alive to marry June if Maybelle had not taken care of him - she must have seen some goodness in him even then. I also heard Randy Scruggs say once that he learned to play the guitar when Maybelle babysat for him. I think June and the girls got a strong dose of responsibility from Maybelle that helped them all through their lives. June and Johnny can be heard on the Circle III album with John's great song about Sara and Maybelle. I have the greatest respect for the Carter's, and not just for the music. I hope they are remembered for who they were and not just what they sang. Chris |

I wasn't sure what I thought of it academically, but it was sure interesting in terms of the personalities it conveys. My mom's pretty upset--we like the Carters and Johnny Cash both and "Ring of Fire" is one of her all-time favorites. I wish I had something meaningful to add, too, but I don't, I just don't know anyone else who would appreciate the loss. |

19 May 03 - 05:53 AM (#955282) Subject: RE: Obit: JUNE CARTER CASH From: Little Robyn This was posted on Folk DJ today: By JIM PATTERSON, Associated Press Writer HENDERSONVILLE, Tenn. - Family, peers and fans at June Carter Cash's funeral Sunday remembered the wife of country great Johnny Cash as compassionate, loving and a music pioneer in her own right. Her 71-year-old husband, looking somber and composed, was brought into the church in a wheelchair and did not speak at the service. Afterward he was taken to his wife's light blue coffin, which he bent over for a long moment. "My daddy has lost his dearest companion ... and his soul mate," said Johnny Cash's daughter, Rosanne Cash. "If being a wife were a corporation, June would have been a CEO. It was her most treasured role." Carter Cash, a Grammy-winning musician, actress, comedian, author and second-generation member of country music's seminal Carter Family, died at 73 Thursday of complications from heart surgery. The 2,000-capacity First Baptist Church of Hendersonville was nearly full for the service, which included Gospel music from Larry Gatlin and The Gatlin Brothers, Emmylou Harris, Sheryl Crow and the Oak Ridge Boys. Among those attending were musicians Hank Williams Jr., Tom T. Hall, Kris Kristofferson, Rodney Crowell, Marty Stuart, Connie Smith, Trisha Yearwood, Ricky Skaggs and a distraught Carlene Carter, June Carter Cash's daughter. Actress Jane Seymour, who worked with June Carter Cash on "Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman," spoke of having "giggling fits" on set, and learning "about acting and love." A representative of Jamaican Prime Minister P.J. Patterson came to praise the Cashes for their charity work in that country, where they maintain a home. During an open forum, several fans spoke of the music Carter Cash made on her own and with her husband. She co-wrote his hit "Ring of Fire," which is about their courtship, and joined Johnny Cash for duets including "Jackson." "I've listened to their music, and it's been almost a religious experience for me," said fan Bill Dewey. |
