The end of a era.

Jim Nabors will no longer be singing "Back Home Again in Indiana" . I've long considered Gomer singing at the Indy 500 the start of summer and the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta as the end of summer.

Have a peaceful life Jim.

Nabors was certainly an icon, but the A Capella group did him and the song justice.
