I once visited Hank Sr's grave site when I was in high school. It was the day they unleashed the memorial in Montgomery, AL. On Hank Sr.s birthday, I visited the grave and there was swift of yellow roses on his grave site. It was sooo moving.I was soooo fascinated by Hank Jr. It was like an obsession to me. I hope one day to meet Hank Jr.

ATTENTION HANK SR FANS:
There is an active movement to REINSTATE HANK to the Grand Ole Opry, which by the way is NOT SO GRAND ANYMORE!!! This Reinstate Hank movement is led by his grandson, Shelton Hank Williams, III. Shelton wrote the petition in his own blood, which genetically speaking is the blood of Hank Williams Sr. You can SIGN THE PETITION ONLINE AT:
http://www.gopetition.com/petitions/reinstate-hank-williams.html
The NOT so Grand Ole Opry continues to exploit the image and music of Hank Sr. There is a Hank Sr. impersonator to greet people by the doors. Yet, the NOT so Grand Ole Opry refuses to REINSTATE HANK.

My brother and I grew up in Newark, NJ. In the 40s and 50s country music was tops and Hank Williams was the absolute best country artist. The day he died we cried because his songs meant so much to us and all of our friends. There hasn't been a day gone by that I haven't thought of him or played a song on the car stereo or at home. He was truly the Greatest singer and song writer that ever lived in our eyes. My son and daughter grew up listening to Rock but learned to appreciate Hank's music just by hearing me play it day in and day out....There are many other old time country artists that I enjoy...but NONE can compare to Hank WIlliams Sr...Our God is a forgiving God and I know Hank has received HIS blessing and is where he should be...God Bless him.

COMMENTS

Driver Carr and Hank evidently left Khoxville on Dec 30--not Dec31
1952 as I remember them arriving in Bluefield at the King Tut Drive-
In at about 10 am on Dec 31, 1952.

There is an arrest record in Tennessee for which Carr was cited for
speeding which should settle that. There is a story that Hank
obtained morphine (or whatever) from a Dr. Horton in Bluefield--
this doctor was repeatedly busted for dispensing drugs without a
prescription or perfunctorally thru-out the 50's. I have no
way of verifying that but can testify to the following.

I was in and out of the Tut all day as was my usual itinerary those
days, and observed Hank with one and maybe no more than 2 beers--
of which he drank little or none. I did observe Hank injecting
something into his arm in while sitting in the back seat of the
Cadillac less than hour before his death (about 4 pm Dec 31, 1952).
In fact Driver Carr sent me inside the Tut to get Tut owner Sox
White ; Sox tried to get Hank to withdraw the needle, but the
damage was already done. Less than an hour later Carr sent me
in to get Sox again. Sox came out and checked Hank's pulse and
then went back inside and got a mirror which he placed under
Hank's nose. (Sox's wife was nurse at he hospital in town). He
told Carr "this man is dead and get him the hell off premises as
he didn't want an trouble here". Carr left and only came back
to the Tut after he reported Hank's death about 12 hours later
and 50 miles up the road at Oak Hill WV. Hank's cadillac and
two or three police cars were at the Tut from about 5-9 pm the
next day Jan 1, 1953. Sox and waitress Hazel Schultz paid 2
visits to the car business next door that belonged to my dad and
forcefully insisted that I shut up and stay out of the Tut while
the cops were there.

The reason why Carr and Hank spent the day at the Tut was that
they were waiting for Bluefield taxi driver Danny Surface to get
off taxi duty. Snow was flying and the weather was turning bad.
Pre-Interstate WV roads were extremely treacherous in those days
and Carr had driven over 2 mountains, each of which took about
an hour at 15 mph in good weather--the second mountain
immediately before Bluefield.

The connection of the second driver was made at the Tut--Danny
Surface was waitress Hazel Schultz's boyfriend. Hank and
original driver Carr went uptown at about 12pm Dec 31 to the
Dough Boy Diner where taxi drivers hung out between rides-- to
arrange for Surface to take over driving duties (to Charleston
WV). Carr and Hank returned to the Tut before 1 pm.

As the name indicates the Doughboy was your typical WWI joint
and was quite derelic by then. The Tut was your stereotypical
WWII WV beer joint. It was built with a surplus quonset hut in
1945 but was paneled in real hardwood inside and was quite a
place with a wrap-around bar. Sox had a stainless steel kitchen
and had the best short orders in town.

About 20 -30 people saw Hank there that day--but no one paid too
much attention to Hank except Hazel Schultz--who swooned and
acted much like and rock and roll groupie from the 60's. Hazel
had left at about 3pm to work a shift at the already mentioned
Doughboy. (ie she double shifted all the way through the 50's
and became owner of the Tut after Sox died in the 70's). The
juke box was extremely dull in 52 except for left-over WWII swing
tunes and 2 or 3 of Hank's tunes. After Hank died several
more of his tunes became hits. A Hank tune was playing on the
art deco Juke when he first came in that morning and through-out
the day.

Hank was extremely sick the whole day and spent most of time
leaning on the counter. He was ejected by Sox after Hazel left
at about 3pm for fighting. Driver Car was outside in the
Cadillac running the heater while it happened. A bar regular
was dancing on the dance floor with his girl friend to a Hank
tune and drunkenly started beating her up on the floor. Hank
jumped up from the bar stool and got between them. The drunk
who was about 280lbs hit Hank hard with an uppercut to the nuts.
Sox always responded to these things with a butcher knife waving
over his head and EJECTED HANK INSTEAD OF THE DRUNK-- afterall
the drunk was a REGULAR. Most of those barflies who saw Hank
that day didn't believe it was actually him. Some like Sox
didn't care or condidered as just a "washed up radio singer" who
had just been ejected from the Opry. Superstar Hank didn't
emerge until agter his death.

It was common knowledge around Bluefield that Hank was at the
Tut and at the Doughboy the day of his death during the 50's
on up into the 60's. The local newspaper was right beside the
Doughboy in those days and never printed anything about his death
, but merely reprinted an article from Oak Hill. Maybe the drug
connection was too much, but there is no way they couldn't have
known. In about 59-60 Patsy Cline and Hank's first wife paid the
Tut a short visit. Hazel and Sox paid my dad a visit and told me
to keep my mouth shut. Patsy Cline had gone to beautician's
school in Bluefield right before her Career took off less than a
mile from the Tut. By the late 60's the common knowledge based
on first hand experience was waining with death of the Tut patrons
of the early 50's.

It is pretty certain that taxi driver Danny Surface didn't know
that Hank was already dead when he took over as driver from Carr.
It is unknown what they did with the dead Hank in the back seat
from about 5or6 pm Dec 31 until the death was reported about 12
hours later. Evidently there was an arrangement with Hank's
property in the trunk as Surface admitted selling 2 handguns
belonging to Hank on several occasions when he stopped by my
dad's carlot during the 50's and 60's. He was very slight of
build and oftentimes wore one of Hank's white handmade cowboy
jackets until his death. This jacket is the same one as that
which appeared on a record jacket cover.

If you examine the 50's version of the death you will see Danny
Surface mentioned in all the accounts including that of the
undertaker. He is listed as the driver at the time of the death.
Later accounts by Carr delete him altogether or alternately list
him as being picked up in Tennessee--where he never lived in his
life--he was a life-long resident of Bluefield. Early accounts
by Carr mention "a stop" at the Doughboy (which was off the main
road unlike the Tut) . Later accounts after Surface died eliminate
any mention of stopping in Bluefield at all.

I am willing to take a lie detector test to verify these facts.
I would like to see Carr do the same thing and own up to negligent
homicide for not taking Hank to the hospital after Sox ejected them
from the Tut. He has been living on Hank's legend since Dec 31,
1952.

I grew up in a tiny community of Paradise River,Labrador,Canada. I wasn't even born when Hank Williams died, but I grew up listening to his records. I would play the old 78s and now the cds. My family is a musical family and I learned to play guitar and sing....Hank Williams songs of course!! I later learned Hank and I had the same birthday, September 17th...I was overjoyed!! I love singing Hank songs and I still think he is the best that ever lived...I even won a talent show with Hank's song "They'll Never Take Her Love From Me"

Yes, I have loved Hank Williams ever since I was a little girl. I played his 78rpm records on a record player that you had to keep the needles changed so they wouldn't wear out those records. My mother and daddy went to Nashville and saw Hank at the opry and didn't take me. I olny wished that I could have seen him. I was very small when he passed away and I still can remember daddy telling mother and me that he had died and I remember crying with grief beside my mother as she was crying too! I still play his music and it still hard to think of his death.He was the most gifted song writer that has ever lived. God blessed him with a talent that no one can touch. There will never be another Hank. He had a beautiful voice and I love him very much. He was the same age as my mother. Thank you Hank Williams for the music.
Love, Rebecca

I have been listening to Hank Williams for as long as I remember. My dad raised me on this music. I feel that I grew to understand Hank Williams more than anyone could imagine. When I listen to his music I can feel him poor his heart out to every aspect to that song. He has been around for a long time because people young and old have promoted his music. Hank Williams' memory will always live on. I listen to Hank Jr. to because his music promotes me to become a singer, and I hope that someday I will. Im only 19 years and we all know that most 19 year olds may not even know who Hank Williams is but there is people like me who will always let his music be known.

The other night I was playing country music on my high-end audio system. After a few hours I put on Hank. What came out of those speakers was nothing short of astounding! Hank is the greatest country singer that ever took the stage. A darn good song writer too. Where he really shines is in his live performances. Hank Williams, as George Jones said in his song, is still the heart of country music.

I love Hank Sr. I have since I was about 15 years old and I'm now 48. Hank is and always will be in his own category all by himself. What a great musician. What great songs and lyrics. And that voice WOW...what country star can even come close to that voice? I say none. What they call 'country' today in 2007, is nothing but pop music. Its an embarrasment compared to what real country music is. I don't listen to any of it. Instead I listen to Hank, Ernest, Roy Acuff, Bill Monroe, Lefty, Red Foley, etc etc.. I think Hank has held the test of time 100 fold. His music will live on for generations to come. What a great man. That's all for now

I wasn't much of a country fan till I heard Mr. Hank Williams play'n. I was in a used book store and the CD playing was some ol' honky tonker, belting out these amazing songs, one after another.
"Who is this guy?" I asked the clerk.
"That's Hank Williams son, greatest ever was!"
I left that shop and ran staight to the next closest music store.
Thanks for showing me the light, Hanky Boy!

Me and my grandmother came to see you once at your resting place, she lives in Birmingham, and we wanted to put flowers and your grave.My grandma said "He's here," I said "who's here?", she said "Hank." I didn't believe her at first, but there was a sudden gust of wind in our faces and it was a pretty hot Alabama day and there wasn't a cloud in the sky, so maybe she was right, maybe you were telling us you loved us too.But one thing's for sure you are loved and terribly missed by millions of people. We'll never ever have another Hank Williams, but were satisfied with the one we got. I love you forever Hank

Hank, you were, and in ways still are, the best musician in history. Left behind talent, songs, and memmories we will never forget. I love you very much as do all my friends and family. My best friend knew all the lyrics to about half your songs by the time he was 4. He is almost 15 now and still loves you. I love you and your music and always will. Rest in peace, forever and always. <3

my dad is a country and western fan for as long as i can remember. i used to hate it but grew up to love it. somehow he never played any Hank Williams cause most of his music was from the 60's early 70's. so i am providing him with all the early country now...Jimmie Rodgers, carter family, Lefty, Roy Acuff and of course YOU! now he takes great pride in seeing me parade around town in my Hank Williams printed denim jacket and became a great fan! we all love you Hank...

Hank...My Dad and I sat up many nights listening to "Your Cheating Heart", "Cold, Cold Heart" and other favorites...My Dad was the world's biggest Hank Williams fan...he needed to listen to music he could relate to...I was asked to listen with him because Dad needed someone with him who could appreciate the music he loved...I was between 8 and 14 years old then...My Dad died when I was 14...I miss him...he left me with many memories including a love for YOU and your music...each time I hear a Hank Williams song, I can't help but think of my Dad...Rest Well Hank...You are and always will be loved

I'm 26 years old and have been a fan since the first time I heard one of your songs. I was probably 12 and the first songs I remember hearing were "I'm So Lonesome I could Cry", and "Your Cheatin' Heart". The way you put your pain into words inspired me to start writing songs myself. I know my songs will never compare with yours. Lord, will anybody's?

My Dad played Hank's music long before I was born.I'm sure I heard it from the womb,I seem to have known it forever.One of the hardest things to do is to select an all time favourite song from one particular Artist or Genre,but I have no doubt in my mind that Cool Water will be played at my funeral.A tribute to me and my life and my love of music,and a tribute to Hank who was responsible for that Love.Thankyou for 45 years of listening....RIP xxx(Lady from London UK)
