Jim Hager, one of the Hager twins on the 70's hit show Heehaw passed away today according to CNN. Some of you younger people may not know who I am talking about, but I am sure the older ones do.
Although it is sad when anyone passes away, this brought back a lot of memories for me. Memories of when life was not as complicated and when sitting around watching cornball show like Heehaw was a simple as life got. It seemed like every Saturday night I was at my grandfathers house watching this show when it came on. During the commercials I recall sneaking back to my grandmothers kitchen grabbing a piece of fatback off of the table. She always had food on the table.
Although I did not know any of the people that was on the show personally. They are still a part of my childhood memories. May God be with the Hager family and his twin brother Jon. Just like all the other characters from that show that has passed away. I am sure Jim is somewhere a picken and a grinnen.

I remember watching the show as a child, but I don't remember him. May he rest in peace.
My Grandpa always loved the show. I didn't really care for it, but didn't have a choice about watching when it was on.
