The latest is country and western star Mel Tillis.
At the age of 85.So sorry for Nashville.
Below more news on this from online

Country Music Hall of Famer and Grand Ole Opry member Mel Tillis died early Sunday morning at Munroe Regional Medical Center in Ocala, Fla., according to his publicist Don Murry Grubbs. The suspected cause of death is respiratory failure.
The singer, songwriter, comedian and businessman, whose genuine warmth and down-home humor drew countless fans, was 85. In his six-decade career, he recorded more than 60 albums, notched three dozen top 10 singles and wrote several hit songs that are now regarded as classics.

What a heartbreak. He wrote such good songs. I think one of my favorites is "(Sweet) Mental Revenge," if for no other reason than the way Waylon Jennings sang the word peroxide.
