Glen Campbell - "I'm Not Gonna Miss You"



"In June 2011, Campbell announced he had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease six months earlier.[48]

Campbell went on a final "Goodbye Tour", with three of his children joining him in his backup band;[49][50] his last show was on November 30, 2012, in Napa, California.[51] Campbell sang "Rhinestone Cowboy" as a goodbye at the 2012 Grammy Awards ceremony held on February 12, 2012.[52]

In April 2014, news reports indicated the 78-year-old Campbell had become a patient at an Alzheimer's long-term care and treatment facility.[53][54]"

First of all IF I live to be 78, and go loopy, I don't really care.

I hate country music, but I alway's like Glen. He really was a very good singer.
