In the wake of getting a booming wildly energetic applause - including a fun loving bow from Luke Brushes - Waterway offered his thanks. "I, first of all, need to thank my Master and Guardian angel Jesus Christ," he started. He said thanks to the Blue grass Music Relationship for the honor, saying, "Joining this rundown of beneficiaries close by the symbol Willie Nelson is mind boggling."
Waterway likewise lauded the entertainers who honored his music: "It's astonishing to hear you all sing these tunes - I'm so happy I got to them before you," he kidded, adding with a smile, "Not you, Jamey."
The country symbol became close to home as he offered appreciation to withdrew colleagues, fiddle player Quality Seniors, street supervisor Tom Foote, and long-lasting chief Erv Woolsey, every one of whom died in 2024.
Finishing up his discourse, Waterway directed his concentration toward his loved ones. "I need to thank my family who are here this evening - my better half Norma, my child Bubba, his significant other Tamara, and my grandchildren Harvey and Jillian," he said. "Particularly Norma, who has upheld me for barely short of 53 years. It's been an astounding excursion."
With sincere minutes and zapping exhibitions, the night demonstrated a fitting recognition for one of blue grass music's most getting through legends.
