The Preacher gave a fantastic sermon, the most entertaining one I've ever heard. God bless him.

Still listening to his music for 60 years. During that time I had the pleasure of meeting hm back stage and during one of his concerts. The concert had a small section of tables and standing room only. When I proceeded to seat at BB's reserved table with moms, the ushers immediately told us to return to the standing room only section. BB KING looked at the ushers while playing waived his finger and they backed off. I will never forget his kindness...I love BB. Rest in Peace BB.

I grew up with B.B.KING, in my mother's house, and my children grew up with him in there home. My husband called B.B.KING, my boy friend☺. Even though I never had the privilege of meeting him in person, I always felt like he was my uncle. I loved a frown as he played Lucille, R.I.P. Uncle B.B. KING. 😔❤💜

5 time Grammy award winner and Kenndy Center Honoree he is the king of the blues BB King. You will always be missed. Your music will live on forever. You had a impact on every one. Not just the the young people, but all the people. You music has impacted millions of people around the world. Still today your music lives on. I remember the first time that I heard you, it totally changed my life. You always have wonderful sound coming from that great guitar. Always loved when you played that guitar it was magic. We will miss you. RIP BB King.

This man has got to be the best individual that I have ever seen. He just seem to be so humble and kind. He loved life and enjoyed what he did. I loved the way he held his mouth when he sang with his guitar lucille. My mom loved his music and she was the reason that I grew up listening to Mr. King. He is the only king on earth that I know. RIP the thrill will always live on!

+Sparkle I wept when I heard. God blessed you with him ,and BB (i'll never know him by another name) was kind enough to give of himself his gift. i'd love to have heard him playing in testament, im sure he shook the very pulpit. God Himself Blessed your family with a gift the rest of us got to share a piece of, im a little envious that I didn't get to share as much as you must have. BTW the pianist was astoundingly good. Be Blessed young Lady, for God gave His Grace to you in BB. Thank You for sharing him with us.

Wow I'm shocked and speechless! B B King is a legend. One of my all time favorites along with my hero Mr soul Sam Cooke. In my childhood in the classic 1970s my father had his united 8-track tapes. My particular favorite was my kind of blues. Riding in father Cadillac listening to that beautiful voice along with Lucille. Those were the good old days. Thank you Mr. King for making a young boy feel comfortable with your music coming up in 1970s. May you rest in peace. From a long fan.

I believe that I will see BB in Heaven soon .......
