R.O.P.E.'s Breakfast With The Stars @Nashville Nightlife Theater, Music Valley Drive, Nashville, Tn. - Wednesday 6. June 2012

[@TheWendyJohnson]

AMAZING!!!!! May she rest in peace. What a legend!!!

[@BlueRidgeKat1]

Most people just think of her as being funny and she is but she's one hell of a musician and can play with or out play anyone!!!

[@twilliamsusmc]

She’s an entertainer

[@montelee8244]

U ARE 110% CORRECT, SHE WAS SO GOOD!!

[@jasonmorgan7939]

She was an amazing talent. Her ability to pick that banjo is legendary.

[@LANACHAPEL]

Pick in Peace darlin' Roni!--and hug my mama for me up there in Heaven...

[@jagchuk]

Like a banjo Eddie Van Halen! What a talent. Remember her from Hee Haw but never knew the depth of her talent

[@edwardmsmith6219]

Ronnie as far as I know could go up against any banjo player on Hee Haw and easily hold her own while in a skit looking funny/goofy making people laugh. I will always miss you along with the other great musicians who have pass on from Hee Haw-R.i.P.!!!

[@BobSebring]

A true loss to the music world. RIP Ronnie, your among the greats!

[@Jleed989]

Are there any women today in Nashville who can play the banjo? What a treasure the Stoneman family is

[@ibdaffy]

What an incredible woman, what an incredible talent. God, I love her and may God bless her.

[@edwarddeitch8886]

One of the all time great talents.

[@peterlund985]

I love it! Rest in peace, sweetheart!

[@billybarrou81]

[@MrInternut]

WOW!!! I gotta go find my socks...they blew off on that opening lick. Roni...you're amazing!

[@michaeldavis9624]

she's a goddess of banjo players amazing

[@MrInternut]

Wow...incredible talent, beautiful woman. Roni, thankyou for sharing your passion for banjo over the years.

[@MB.Salon.TV.21]

What a legend!

[@patrickalther-xc6rg]

Just learned of her death. I remember watching the Stoneman Family on TV back in the 50s, a show on a Washington DC station.Pop Stoneman was the first person I saw playing the autoharp.

[@wrdlmbrt1956]

She's a awesome banjo player and I loved watching her on Hee Haw! She always reminded me of my Aunt Ellsey!

[@BB-qs1ty]

she is the coolest lady ever

[@nothingtoseehere3876]

I named my baby girl after her... I hope she likes banjo ad much as her 3 yr old brother..haha damn, we love bluegrass. :D

[@GBWagner1]

Hehey! You, 5 string lady are perfect! Very high speed, fine picking with real JOY! Greetings from Hungary!

[@Carl5383]

She's very good!!! Haven't seen her in a long time.

[@ulrichbergmann1347]

She is one of my all time favorite Banjo players. She is a legend! But the rest of the family great musicians too. Great to see u can still kick asses when no more in your 20s. The Band in the backround play great too!

[@afterburner2869]

I am a total metal head and love this stuff.

[@mnc1126]

Really don’t seem like a stretch at all.

[@ErwinTipton]

She was awesome . I enjoyed it .

[@kathyhames2200]

You would have never met or knew a precious woman I met her years ago when my parents went to OPRYLAND we stayed at this hotel beside Cracker barrel her an her band came in We had breakfast with her an that same night we had dinner with Jerry Closer She inspired me to play the banjo too God bless her 💓

[@flybob63]

Roni was such a treasure. Funny, great storyteller and outstanding banjo picker.realky wish I could have seen her in person.

[@ronnmiller9085]

One of the sweetest ladies in country music and a dear friend for a long .... Longgggggggg time. Love you Roni, keep on kickin' it.

[@brianwilson6403]

Roni Stoneman was the complete package. An extremely talented musician. On top of that, a complete Hoot!!! Loved her and Gordie Tapp in "The Nagger's" skits!!!

[@sams220guy3]

❤❤ Roni ❤❤

[@personalityplugger]

In the mid 70s we were at the Opry with friends. After the show we all went out, and Roni ended up sitting next to me. She was the MOST beautiful woman I have ever seen. She was so breathtaking offstage that I couldn't even talk to her (and I'm a woman). She had to think I was an idiot, but she put Jacqueine Smith - who as at her height of fame - to shame.

[@jayjaynella4539]

And Jacqueline was the focus of many of young guys' dreams back then.

[@shawndaheisser489]

My first memory of Hee Haw was on Saturday nights. I would go to my Grandma’s while Mama and Daddy went out for the night. It was always on Grandma cooked Supper and I would see Roni,Grandpa Jones, Roy Clark picking the banjos. Roni would dance with her shoes off and here I would be trying to imitate her😂😅🤣 My Grandma would say “Sister? What are you trying to do? Are you trying to stomp bugs?” 😂❤️🌈🙏

[@raywardrup2954]

What an entertainer-saw her at Disney World back before Hee Haw great show.

[@chrisreed26]

I met her circa 1990 in the Tampa FL area..She performed at Rice Creek RV Resort n the clubhouse..a friend from my church worked at Foretravel Of Florida ($$$ RV's) where he met her having her tour bus serviced..she invited him and his family to come see her at the RV resort..I got a free tape haha

[@9traktor]

Great musician - great lady !

[@BeingRomans829ed]

There might be snow on the rooftop... but there's still _farr in the furnace_! 8-)

[@sharonbrewer1956]

I love her so. I've never seen a woman pick the banjo as good as Roni

[@normboytis7181]

Wow I. Remember when I met her a while back when I.met buck owns it was Amayzing

[@ckelley63]

Glad to see Ronnie still kicking it out!!

[@axisbold1967]

I cut her Christmas trees when I was a little boy and she's a family friend .

[@Cutecamaro]

That was so awesome!! I remember watching The Stonemans perform on The Opry and Hee Haw when I was a kid !!~~

[@stephaneganibardi1760]

Bravo Madame, votre humour est égale à votre talent musicale au plaisirs de vous revoir.

[@brianwilson6403]

I'm sure it must've happened at least once on the show, would love to see a clip of her and Roy Clark playing together!!!

[@brianwilson6403]

Think of Roy Clark, Roni Stoneman, AND Grandpa Jones playing together. Talk about the 3 banjo attack!!!

[@brianwilson6403]

Found It!!!

[@nikkitrivette3474]

I think this is the first time I've ever actually seen her with shoes on! lol...but dadGUM that lady can pick!

[@Dallas-Nyberg]

Yeah!....now THAT is great music!

[@voliums]

How lucky was I to meet you Roni. You're great. No pity partying anymore.

[@elle-iza]

It's just or body that ages. In your heart and soul you'll always be the young girl / guy, who is hungry for life and ready for a night out. 👖👗

[@joaodomingoscustodio6247]

[@donaldewert2332]

[@dainhuston999]

Your never to old to have a banjo around your neck!!

[@trueknowledgeispower]

She's 81 now.

[@shemp5858]

She was burning that banjo up

[@ArkRed1]

Is the steel player alive? Looks like by the expression on his face he's scared Roni might have him take a ride. Ain't an easy song to play on the pedal steel.

[@NoK1dding]

Yeah!

[@sharonmuhammad2737]

[@johnirby493]

She would have put Earl to shame.

[@carpyhook4639]

[@mid-ohioguardian6927]
