Kenny Rogers, Country Music’s ‘The Gambler,’ Dead at 81
“The Rogers family is sad to announce that Kenny Rogers passed away last night at 10:25PM at the age of 81,” his rep said. “Rogers passed away peacefully at home from natural causes under the care of hospice and surrounded by his family. The family is planning a small private service at this time out of concern for the national COVID-19 emergency. They look forward to celebrating Kenny’s life publicly with his friends and fans at a later date.

That’s one bet we will all loose at some point. One of the few guarantees in life. I don’t feel bad about his passing at all. He’s had an amazing life, wealth, fame, beautiful women (probably a few too many), and hey, he made it to 81! I’d say he got his money’s worth for an E ticket ride! (That’s a reference to Disney when they first opened they had ticket books, A,B,C,D and E, with the E ticket being for the best rides). RIP

And every hand's a loser
And the best that you can hope for
Is to die in your sleep."
