I am 17 and I love to listen to his music and how we played it. The greatest ever. To never be forgotten.
My Husband took me to see Conway years ago,he knew he was my favorite singer in the world,I just loved him so much. We also went to Twitty City , I was able to have a picture made with him and I treasure that picture so much still today, That was the best day of my life. I still thank my husband for that best day. Rest in Peace conway Twitty. May God be with your family always. Your music will live on forever in my heart.
When I was a young man growing up, I grew up with country music. I grew to love his work. later in life I was working as a security officer traveling with a now gone Crabtree security. they worked the county fairs. It was with this job I got to meet the real man and was able to have a conversation with Conway(Harold). A genuine person he was. I will never forget the words of advice he gave me that day. It broke my heart later in life when I learned of his tragic death. I will never forget you Conway. You will always have a place in my heart.
there never be another conway twitty
I was on my senior trip in Branson when all this happened..we actually saw one of his last shows where he started telling all about his life. he said he had never spoken at concerts before becasue it was all about the music. I can’t help but wonder if he knew something was wrong..we were all devestated to say the least. we just loved conway twitty
