Country Music artist Mel Tillis passed away today from respiratory failure. Mel had been battling intestinal issues since 2016 as well.

Quote: Mel Tillis, whose career as a country singer and the writer of enduring hit songs like Country Music Hall of Fame and a National Medal of Arts . Mel's daughter Pam Tillis followed him into Country Music and has a great voice.
