    Arthel Lane "Doc" Watson was born on this day in 1923. He would have been 99 years young today. We think of him everyday. We love and miss you Doc. Thanks for being the visionary and the man that you were. If you can, spin some of his music today and remember him fondly. 🎼❤

    He would have been 98 years young today. If you have time, take a minute today to celebrate the legend that is Doc Watson. We miss you Doc.

    Prayers for the Prine family. Devastating loss for our world. His wisdom remains... “So if you're walking down the street sometime And spot some hollow ancient eyes Please don't just pass 'em by and stare As if you didn't care, say, "Hello in there, hello” ❤️😢❤️
