Gene Watson Remembers Hank Williams: Monday 4 January 2021

Details
Published: 04 January 2021

Hank Williams (Monday 17 September 1923 - Thursday 1 January 1953)

On Monday 4 January 2021, Gene Watson remembered Hank Williams (Monday 17 September 1923 - Thursday 1 January 1953).

'Hank Williams Sr.'s funeral was held on this day back in 1953 at the Montgomery Auditorium.

They estimated 25,000 came to view his coffin and 2,500 attended the service - more than for any other citizen of Alabama.

He died New Year's Day at age 29 in the back of his Cadillac heading to a concert in Ohio.

In his short career he wrote and sang some of our biggest country hits'
