HAROLD "HAWKSHAW" HAWKINS

johnny cash

Harold "Hawkshaw" Hawkins?

You are talking about a Country music singer named Harold Franklin Hawkins. He was better known as "Hawkshaw Hawkins". He died in a pane crash in 1963 with Patsy Cline.

A legend indeed. I only wish that Hawkshaw Hawkins and the others in that plane had not been taken from us so soon.

You're darn right there Tommy. Man they were taken from us way too quick, I bet that Bonanza went from one big shiny piece to aluminum confetti in like 500 milliseconds, 45 degree angle right into the ground. Too bad Randy never got his instrument certification, what a moron. Like we couldn't have seen this coming.............
