Hello how are you doing

[@TheBrooklynbodine]

I remember hearing what had to have been among the earliest reports of his death (if not THE earliest). I was in a little town in southwestern Pennsylvania (Mononagahela). I was in the parking lot of McDonalds and it came over the car radio. A few minutes earlier, there'd been a report that Conway had been rushed to the hospital. I don't remember the exact time, but it was in the morning. I remember the date-June 5, 1993.

[@missmajestic2158]

If my memory serves me correctly, Loretta Lynn's husband was in the same hospital they carried Conway to for this emergency. She was up in the room with her husband and was notified that Conway was in the emergency room and she went down to see him before he actually passed away. MAY THEY BOTH R I P 🙏

I was fortunate enough to see Conway Twitty in the 80's at Ponderosa park. He was my favorite singer and I still listen to his song's. He was the best singer ever! Rest with Jesus, Conway!

[@muffs55mercury61]

At the time I lived just 100 miles from where it happened. It was so shocking in that he was 59 and now gone. I never heard of any health issues. It was one of those silent killers in our bodies. Appreciate every day you are alive and be grateful for it.

[@JuniorJR52]

i met Conway in 1991 when I was only 19 and I was sure devistated when I heard he'd passed away. We were supposed to go see him in concert that year. So heart broken. And I still think of that day I met him even to this day. Such great time :). Thank you Aunt Jan for getting me and my sister in line that day to meet him :).

[@TheAppalachianSon]

That's amazing! I imagine that he was really down to earth regardless of being Conway Twitty. Thank you for sharing with us.

I was finally going to see him and he died 2 mos. before.

[@lewisgriffin9684]

I know Conway Twitty pretty well he went to school my grandpa when he was in town doing a show he would always stop and stay the night with my grandma and grandpa so I knew the man long before I knew his music cuz I was so young I really didn't listen to music into my later years and I learned appreciated music too but he was a great guy some of those pictures of him in my house that picture is out there with me on his shoulder holding up my finger like number one he definitely had the ladies crushing on him that's for sure Conway Twitty is the goat of country music in my mind 55 number one hits at the time of his early death and reason will tell you he would add a few more in him if he had not died when he did it he's also the only artist to have a number one hit in five different decades 50 60 70 80s and 90s never been done before and haven't been done since rip Conway

[@rolo1955]

First time I heard Conway was way back in the late 60's on an oldies station. I remember hearing this guy that sounded a bit like Elvis, the song was "Only Make Believe" I wasn't much into country until I moved to Houston in 1976 and I heard this song "After All The Good Is Gone" I feel in love with it and rediscovered Conway!

[@guymerritt4860]

I bumped into him once - literally. I was a musician and our band was setting up our equipment, one day, to work for a couple of weeks at the Astro Village Hotel across from the Astrodome in Houston. The Houston Livestock and Rodeo Show was on that week and Conway was in town to perform. It was afternoon and I was rushing from the bar, back out to my truck, to get more musical equipment. I was hurrying and walked out the bar door into the lobby looking down. I ran right into some guy, kinda head on, and said, "Whew...excuse me." I looked up to see I had almost bowled over Conway Twitty who was headed into the bar. I had a big piano belt buckle....don't know if he saw that or not. But he had a big grin on his face when he saw the recognition on my face. This may sound trite but he had this big smile and very kind eyes. He just chuckled and had this friendly look. I never forgot that. He made a lot of great music. As a musician I was in bands that covered many of his tunes. Rest in peace, sir.

Conway did complain of a discomfort in his side several days prior to his death. Great video.

[@dewilew2137]

Did you know him?

[@liberty5069]

Problem is, that many of these discomfort signals are attributed by victim as "old age" or they're just not severe enough to think about going to a doctor.

[@VinnieVega]

To listen to Conway Twitty, and Sam Moore singing “Rainy Night In Georgia “ does something for my soul! Those two together make the perfect combination of rhythm, country and blues. Conway truly had a one of a kind voice.

[@JuniorJR52]

I grew up on Conway's music and have about 40 of his cassettes and still listen to his music to this day, but on KZbin.

[@TheAppalachianSon]

Be sure to hang on to them cassettes they are making a comeback! Real albums... I can’t believe it’s almost a lost art.

Been almost 30 years. If Conway were alive today, he'd be Willie Nelson's age. Goes to show how young he was when he left us...

[@angelashaffer4892]

I’ll never forget being a kid and me and my mom are in the car driving out these country roads when it came across the radio. She ran off the road and came to a screeching halt and started crying. She stayed up for 2 night on the phone with her best friend playing Conway records.

[@talesfromanoldmanpatoneal6372]

My father was found to have this health issues in his early 70's. Luckily the doctors caught this before a rupture and successfully repaired the artery. It did leave a large scar basically from his lower breast bone to below his belly button. I just remember I had just taken my dad for a doctor's visit and we had just gotten home when the phone rang. His doctor told me to take him straight to the hospital that he had called ahead and they would be waiting for him. I believe surgery was done the next day. My father lived to be into his mid-80s before passing. Not sure why I just mentioned all that I'm guessing it was because my dad loved Conway Twitty. Anyway another great job there sir really enjoyed the video.

[@TheAppalachianSon]

Thank you for sharing. It’s scary to think that it could be over quickly if something like this isn’t detected. I actually got a screening myself after doing this research. I’m glad to know it can be repaired and that your dad made it out the other side!

[@scottsutorka6398]

Great video. I saw Conway in concert (and spent time with him backstage) a few weeks before he died, when he came to town with George Jones (my longtime friend). Great show and even better people.

[@keithtolman6904]

I knew him. He lived in Oklahoma City, and I hung around with his niece at the Kip's Big Boy restaurant on the south side. He would come in and stop at our booth to say "hello." He insisted us kids call him "Uncle Connie." A nice guy and gracious gentleman! He kept his twin Aero Commander at Downtown Airpark where I flew from. I'll always remember the Titty Bird emblem on the tail. Often took my high school sweetheart to the Twitty Burger Restaurant in our neighborhood, first of his chain of restaurants. Conway Twitty, Wanda Jackson and our respective families were all "southside trash!" LOL!

Man, I remember the women, and I mean plural. I'm 42 now and I was raised by a good ol honky Tonk loving grandmother that made NO attempt at hiding her overly affectionate love of this man. I would a lot of times wake to hearing playing on the stereo, which my grandmother said was made for his voice, and usually he was playing when I returned home from school. I remember disliking him simply because of how much she loved him, but what does a adolescent boy know about what makes people tick. I was eventually swayed in my early 30s while paying a debt to the state and got a hold of a C.D. for my walkman. I fell in love with this dude's voice. I don't know if I could pick a favorite band, song, etc, but when I heard Conway Twitty sing "Play, Guitar, Play", I was hooked. It became a nearly every single day song for the last 12 years. I never met the man, he died when I was only 11 and I remember my Grandmother's heartbreak at finding out. I was standing an arms length away from her when the t.v. spouted off that Conway had passed and the silence that came over that room and turning to look at her and the look she had haunts, and I mean Haunt's my memory. I'll never forget it. Broke her heart, but she has long passed herself and all I can say is that I hope they met wherever they are and he, being the Gentleman he was, asked her to dance.

The boohooing is for people left standing around your coffin whose own time is coming. Enjoy your life.

[@steelarama]

I was doing shows at the same theatre that Conway was doing shows at. I literally saw him the day before he died. A very good friend of mine that I went to school with, worked at that hospital at the time, and was part of the hospital staff that tended to Conway. My friend said that he apologetic to the staff for having to care for him, he didn’t want to be an inconvenience. It was truly a heartbreaking ordeal, and was even more heartbreaking after his death, with everything his children had to through with some legal issues that they had to deal with, with Conway’s wife at the time.

This condition is extremely common and many older people live with it and never even realize it, since it never actually ruptures. You’d also be surprised at how many celebrities have died from this condition…actor John Ritter and musician Peter Steele of Type O Negative being a couple that I can recall off the top of my head. My own grandmother actually had to have surgery to repair one of these, which is a fairy complex surgery…especially back when she had it in the late ‘90s.

I also have an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm. They are known as a silent killer because they usually don’t show symptoms until it is almost to late. Mine was spotted by my urologist using a CT Scan to figure out why I was having so many urinary infections. It was repaired in 2011 and if you look at the diagram of the Aorta, it was several inches below the heart. The stent was an upside down (Y) with the single part went up to the heart an the other two going down each vein in the legs as in the diagram. Some famous people who died from a Triple A were George C Scott, Michael Rennie from the movie The Day the Earth Stood Still and one of the smartest scientist known to mankind, Albert Einstein.

@@TheAppalachianSon Thank you but I had a very dear friend who didn’t make it. His aneurysm was in an inoperable spot and had to wait till it ruptured and die. One symptom that might be noticed is if it only begins to leak like Conway’s did. The blood will slowly begin to make your stomach bloat outwards as the blood fills the abdominal cavity. There is a chance a rupture can be repaired if you’re in the hospital when it happens.

I've been a huge Conway fan since my teens. Got to know his music because my grandparents always had the radio dialed into country music. Anyways, small fact, doesn't really matter, but Conway quit smoking approx. a decade before his death...and why the burial was so speedy, I'm not sure, what I do know is, Dee Henry(his second wife) and his kids did not get along. Settling the estate got real ugly. So ugly in fact, all of Conway's belongings, even love letters to his first wife, were put up for auction.

Aortic dissection has over a ninety percent chance of killing you and always fatal except in a very small percent! My husband is a very rare exception! He lived but it wasn’t easy. He was on life support six months and every single day a doctor was threatening me with a DNR! I had to constantly tell doctors who were quoting statistics to me that when I get back he better be alive or they could explain it to a team of lawyers! Then on a Friday they said he may never talk well but we believe with years of therapy he can. I came back on Monday and my husband said in flawless English for first time in six months they never come check on me! Several doctors were shocked silent, before they could find their speech I said oh this is going to be fun! I’m tired! I’m going home to help my baby graduate and I’m no longer needed. Believe me Sergeant can more than speak for himself and if I was you all I would listen close the first time because he doesn’t like repeating himself! From there he got off life support quickly and all were in agreement especially the doctors that God healed him.

I remember the day he died. I was driving home when it came over the radio. I pulled over and cried. Conway and Marty Robbin’s were my favorite singers. It was a tragedy what happened to his beloved Twitty city after he died!! It built it for his family and fans. Yet his family turned his dreams into a greed filled nightmare!!

[@TempoDrift1480]

Cool video. It's funny how his songs will be on my karoke or listening playlist right next to Ice Cube followed by The Cars and Aerosmith. I guess good music is good music.

Hey, thanks for doing this. Loved it!

[@chvfd687]

I'd have to say he was buried so quickly to allow the family to be able to properly mourn his loss without a massive crush of fans. Also,not known to many people at least at that time but Conway died without a last will and testament. Also too and I'd like to see opinions here provided any would have such. Well,before I get into this part I'm getting much of my information from a TV show I watched several years ago forgive me now as I can't remember what network it was on but it was called simply "the will" it talked of people who were famous that passed with no will. It spoke of an incident where he fell as he exited his bus and struck his head rendering him unconscious. Could that have been a factor in his eventual passing??

I saw him in concert in Wayne Michigan. My first concert ever. My sister and my self sat in the back of a small concert hall and he started singing hello darling my sister and I did not know you could not walk up to the stage and we get up out of our seats and walk down to the stage . He is sitting on a chair and he looks at us and he smiles at us and we are like ooh my Gosh Conway is smiling at us, lol . Little did we know we had security coming up the isle on our ass. Lol. When concert was over we were in the lobby buying suvaneer and we got invited back to a party they were having at the Ramada inn at the airport and we did not go. Missed opportunity to meet him. I was about 23 yrs old and married and did not want to go . I didn’t want the band to think they were going to get something they were not. I’m 64 now and it was a great memory.

Hello dear,how are you doing?

[@brendaadams2691]

My brother died at the age of 53 from abdominal aortic aneurism while having a heart catherization. By the time he coded it was to late because aneurism had ruptu red and when we were able to go in to see him blood was coming from everywhere. It is an awful sight to see ,

Desperado Love. Best song he ever sang (in my opinion)

[@beverlykennedy126]

Damn. Cigerrets my sister-in-law passed away because of heavy smoking from smoking like there was no tomorrow. Couldn’t make her listen and now she’s dead due to the same ailment that killed Conway. If you smoke quit and quit now before it’s too late!

[@livewithnick]

I remember the day Conway died. I was in high school. We lost one of the very best ever in country music that day.

[@outlawhillbilly9565]

Known as The High Priest of Country Music. RIP😊

[@rogerbarrett1979]

Conway Twitty quit smoking in 1985 and as a result found new vocal range. Around that time he began a diet and exercise routine. And because his father was a heavy drinker, he never drank. That should have made a major difference. But then shit happens.

[@marypjones3564]

It would be nice to see a movie about Conway twitty.they already got movies of other singers like Elvis and Tammy wynet
