Default John Prine sick.

Please keep John in your thoughts and prayers. His family just posted on Facebook that he is in the hospital and very ill. I have always loved his talent and songs.

Sad, please pull through John!

Country music star, Joe Diffe, died today of complications from COVID-19. This virus needs to be taken very seriously by everyone!

It really frustrates me that people don’t take this seriously, it’s dangerous to older people and sick people especially.
I really hope he gets better, I didn’t know this happened, was just watching videos this morning of him!

So many health problems for John over the years. Great talent. Great guy. Here’s hoping he pulls through this one too.

Yes - Coronavirus complications. He needs a miracle as his health hasn't been great for a while now.

Joe Diffie just passed away from it as well.

Here's a little tribute for you John - stay strong!

I liked a lot of his music back in the 1990s, and still do. Rest in peace, Joe. And get well, John.

Fiona Whelan Prine (John's wife) posted about being ill with Covid-19 last week, herself. Obviously they were both exposed.

There are some enormously treasured people we will be losing over this...
