You never let us down! Your family was an inspiration for many that followed you. We love the Osmond family and always will!

Love the hug from Donny at the end. ❤️

[@tonytellez1575]

I made it without a tear until Donny went to Merrill. Thank you so much Miss Samantha for sharing this video. Still has an awesome voice for over 150 years.

[@osarecool]

You're so welcome! It was a very sad moment.

[@kardiaheart]

I grew up listening to the Osmonds and, like every other girl around my age, fell in love with Donny. This is hard. They are all legends. I hope they all know how much they are loved and respected. Enjoy your family time Merrill. You've earned it.

[@joycemiraglia280]

Hello...When my husband to be and I were dating ( he was just out of the Navy and I was a senior in high school) we would watch the Andy Williams show and the 🎶Osmonds were guests on the show 🎶 they were amazing. Now here Merrill is retiring and I'm now 76 years old and still love the Osmonds and their wholesome music🎶 fit for Everyone to listen to. Great talent each and every member of that wonderful family.

[@helenh20mo]

I am from Australia and had no idea the Osmonds still performed omgosh! Love these guys ..

[@susieb8661]

Merrill has such an amazing voice. Sorry to see him retire but everyone has their time. Lovely for Donny to be there to send him off.

[@melanieweekes7516]

I've been a fan since I was 10 yrs old (I'm 61 now) watching this, reminded me of why I love this family so much. Their love for each other is so obvious and genuine. I have raised 3 sons, myself and I have to say, they have that kind of love for each other that I saw in this video. God bless you, Merrill and of course, my favorite, Donny!!

[@jdgolf499]

This is what made the Osmonds so special. You heard the love that Merrill had for the fans, as all of the Osmonds had, and the love they had for each other. We will never see anything like the Osmonds again. I have met each of them, including their parents, and I truely did feel more like a friend than a fan! They will be missed!

[@mabeldurocher8172]

I'm a smidgeon older than Merrill and watched and listened to their music for longer than I can remember. God bless and keep you all safe in His love and care. Much gratitude for your devotion to excellency and genuine hearts . XOXO

[@romelovesdan]

Merrill had a voice that challenged many of the top Rock act's vocalists in the 1970's. He was better than most!

[@freeandnatural]

@romelovesdan That’s so true. He’s one of the GOAT frontmen.

[@chainamarie03]

What a decent legendary family. I can't recall one scandal. They have always acted with character and dignity.

[@carolwolfrum417]

I'm crying 😢 now. Donny giving Merrill a hug at the end shows that they are loving brothers ❤❤

[@jasonwickens0813]

Back in the 70's every Friday night was Donnie and Marie Osmond show. It was Edgewood Pizza and coke. What a treat it was for us kids. Flash Forward to 2022. My Dad is gone, My sister is gone and my mom is 77 and has dementia. I am it, the last one left from our family. I try not to think of it all it hurts so bad. Well enough of my BS, no one wants to hear my crap. Anyway Donnie and Marie YES were the best thing back on the day.

[@DebbieUnderfinger]

Very touching. Yes there are others who may need to read this. We all need to hold onto our families while they are here, and hold onto memories. 🙏

[@osarecool]

I agree with Debbie, thank you for sharing. I know how painful it can feel. Sometimes those moments of pain can wake you up to focus on now. Best wishes to you Jason.❤

Donny was always such a ham but was NEVER a stage/spot-light hog. He wanted to be there for Merrill but stepped aside and let it be all about his brother. Their hug has me bawling. Merrill's voice is still so strong and great. Wow, it was 50 years ago that Down By the Lazy River came out and I still have the 45. When did I get old? Happy retirement, Merrill. Thanks.

Hello Marla how are you doing

[@PirateLeota]

I've been an Osmond fan for over 50 years, and Merrill was my favorite. This had me in tears! He will always have a very special place in my heart! Thank you, Merrill, for all the music, laughs, and love through the years! ❤️

[@TheStuport]

I come from a Family of 4 boys and two girls. My Mom LOVED the Osmond Family and she would "Volunteer" me and my three brothers in music shows and we would do a variety of songs and often times comedic stuff like "Alvin and The Chipmuncks" with my oldest Brother being David Seville! But her proudest moments were when she taught us boys to appreciate The Osmond Family through their music and singing! My little sister would come on halfway through our show and become Marie! Great Memories and just plum delighted to have had the opportunity to be Donny on many a Summer night at The Town Hall. I had dark hair and brown eyes...but there can really only be One Donny! LOLOL Cheers Everyone

[@russellcarter1872]

This is very touching. Saying goodbye to something you have done your whole life. Well done.

[@freeandnatural]

Thank you for posting this. My grandmother introduced me to the Osmonds when they were on the Andy Williams Show. I've always had a deep affection for the family with a major crush on Donny. I've always loved Merrill vocal range and energy. I wish him all the best in his retirement.

Marie bought her Wedding Invations, there, that went, (not sure, but, even the President, of the USA, received an invitation, from Rexburg, ID!) I just wish to THANK YOU, AND YOUR AMAZING, TALENTED FAMILY, FOR ALL THE FUN, AND "THROUGH THE YEARS!!!" Music and laughter, is truly, "The, VERY BEST, "MEDICINE," in life! I now live close to the Portland Oregon Temple. Again, I thank you and your families' talent, to get me through it all! And Donny, my Aunt Karen, from Center ST, Bountiful, helped you, with your needs, with your, "phone service needs!!! She asked you, "are you, if you were, "legit," and sent her an autographed picture to her!" SHE may have only been, 1 FAN of yours, BUT, it meant the WORLD to her, for your kindness!!! Again, THANK YOU, for making HARD, TOUGH DAYS, "BEARABLE, AND BETTER!" AS Elton John's, "YOUR SONG," BEAUTIFUL LYRICS STATE..."HOW WONDERFUL LIFE IS, WHILE YOU'RE IN THE WORLD!!!" THANK YOU...ALL OSMONDS, for your love and talent to the world!!! A FAN OF ALL OF YOU, since Andy's show in the 60's!!! God Bless you ALL!!!

‘Tis indeed hard to say goodbye. Merrill’s voice is still strong and beautiful, so he’s bowing out while on top. He’s 69yo so it’s ok for him to do something less strenuous, we’ll miss him but we’ll be just fine. Donny may not be too far behind, he’ll be 65 this December and if his & Debbie’s health holds out he’ll keep going for at least 4yrs.
