    Hey Larke

    I just read where Randy Travis sang at his induction ceremony into the Country Music Hall of Fame. That's an amazing comeback story and makes me feel good to hear of it. I know you're his friend so you may have known about it already. In case you haven't.

    Yes, he is able to sing better than speak or talk sentences. Sorta like Mel Tillis. He was here last week on personal business.
    It is great to see him and see how far he has come along.

    My Dad had a stroke when he was in his 20's. I know how difficult it was for him to relearn to do literally everything, including speaking. For him to sing at his induction is prety amazing.
    Dad could sing too, without the words getting stuck, but he didn't have Randy's voice!
