Grand Ole Oprey's Little Jimmy Dickens, 94

A flurry of obits, it seems.

I never knew anything about Little Jimmy Dickens until Brad Paisley hit it big and featured Jimmy in several of his music videos. He was a funny character.

"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

My dad used to listen to some of his music. Along with Merle Haggard, George Jones, and the rest.

RIP, Jimmy.

“My mission today is to go forth and tell people about why I follow Christ and also what the Bible teaches, and part of that teaching is that women and men are meant to be together.

“However, I would never treat anyone with disrespect just because they are different from me. We are all created by the Almighty and like Him, I love all of humanity. We would all be better off if we loved God and loved each other.”
