Dear Merle Haggard,
I just wanted to say that you have been given a great gift from God to be given another chance in life after your illnesses. I am praying that you use all the gifts God gives you for HIS glory. My childhood memories are filled with many of your songs. The Farmer’s Daughter is one of my personal favorites along with Mama’s Hungry Eyes. No one can sing those songs like you. May God continue to give you good health and may you never forget HIS greatness. Love and Prayers, Ken and Becky Buttram, Mason, Ohio
Merle, I saw you in Bakersfield a number of weeks ago at Buck Owens place. Really cool to talk with people in the audience who went to school with you and were your friends back in the Oildale days. I’ve been a big fan forever. You were such a blessing to me, I hope to see you again, Live! Red did a great job warming up the audience for you.
I remember as a young Amish boy in Canada in 1970 working in the field and diesel fumes made me sleepy,so I sang all Merle’s songs I knew to stay awake.The Fugitive,Sing Me Back Home,Branded Man,etc.It was hot in the field,but often the song had so much meaning,I’d get goosebumps and a little chill would come.I was very blessed to hear God gets all the Glory for your success and good health.
I forgot to mention in my last reply we have seen you perform in Green Bay,Milwaukee and Rhinelander Wisconsin.
All were great performances.
Your up and coming concert in Harris MI on 8/4/12 where we will be attending we would love to meet you and just skake your hand.
Your the greatest.Take care and best of health to you and your family.
God Bless,

Hey Merle i want see u in new-brunswick , Canada
Hi Merle Been a fan since 1982.Looking forward to seeing you in concert on 8/4/12 in Harris Mi.
Hey Merle , My name is Shane Rossen I have been a big fan of your music for years and it has influenced my life and music. I am a Christ follower my self and your latest blog post touched me “Testify”. I say that because my Dad Vern Rossen also a believer in Christ has been fighting cancer and we believe in miracles ! I guess what I am trying to say is thanks for testifying of Gods healing power it gave me hope and strength…..
I would like to see you in concert some day anyhow Bless you..
Your Brother In Christ

I heard your songs back in the 70″s & been a fan every since. Know about having only a quarter to your name & an empty belly at 16 yrs old with not a soul to call in this world. I have been able to always relate to his songs. DADDY FRANK & IF WE CAN MAKE IT THRU DEC. & OKIE . I salute you for following your own beat when it riled the Nashville Machine. No one can take your place. Your voice is so detinctive.
I am parying for you and your family.
I am exhausted just reading the tour schedule. But, hope to catch you soon–have been to several concerts in Houston and in N. CA and look forward to the next one.
Is there a chance of coming to the UK on tour. My boyfriend and I came to watch you in Wendover NV, and I am now living in the UK, I would love to invite my boyfriend over to visit if you are playing here.
Are you likely to come to Scotland at some time in the future. Love to hear you and Willie Nelson together. Went to see Willie a couple of times when he visited Scotland, he was fantastic. Have a few of your CD’s, fantastic. God Bless xxx
We are going to the concert at Cheyenne Fronttier Days on July 22nd. Can’t wait! One more item off the old bucket list.
Going to the June 1st show at Spirit Mountain in Oregon. Cant wait to hear Merle sing “Fightin’ Side” and his other classics!!

I have been a Merle fan from day one. He and I are very close in age. It appears I will never get to see him in person or shake his hand. SO THANKS MERLE for all the great tunes and hours of enjoyment you have given me.

I’ve seen Merle several times and always a great show but his show in Paducah, KY on Apr 26th was without a doubt the best one yet. What a privilege to spend the evening with such a legend and his talented band!
