Gary Stewart. Underrated in my opinion.
Yessss. Gary's family was originally from Kentucky, but settled in my parent's hometown of Ft. Pierce, FL when he was a youngster. That part of Florida has a long history of cattle, citrus and country living. Gary was a compatriot of Mel Tillis, another (recently deceased) Floridian. When I was younger working my way through college I worked for a local funeral home that held the funeral for Gary's sister who sadly had committed suicide. Unfortunately, Gary followed in her footsteps years later after the death ofhis wife from pneumonia. He has a high, lonesome voice and songs that fit the hard-living life he led. If you're in one of "those" moods, his songs and voice will break your heart.
Gary's photos frequently show him in fedoras.
