A quartet that could sing almost anything and make it sound great! And Joe Bonsall was a huge part of it! RIP Joe!

The OAKRIDGE Boys are one of my favorite groups 😢

Rest In Peace Joe 🙏 Sending prayers for his family and the Oak Ridge Boys 😢❤

I met him in person and Las Vegas backstage. My husband’s daughter was married to Dewey Deaux who played saxophone in the band. All of them were very nice. Joe brought so much happiness to so many people it will be forever remembered.

The Oaks and The Statler Brothers....my 2 favorite country quartets growing up in the 1970's. Thanks Joe for your hard work and dedication to country and gospel music.

RIP another piece of American folk music.

Back in the arms of GI JOE AND LILY rest in heavenly peace Joe bonsall

End of an era. May he rest in peace.

I have been listening to the Oak Ridge Boys for over Forty years. I bought tickets for my whole family to see them in concert back in 1990. I especially love it when they sing Gospel!!! God has a great new singer in the Heavenly Choir today! Rest in Peace, Joe.✝️

I was saddened to hear of the loss of Joe. I've been an Oak Ridge Boys fan since their beginning. ❤

R.I.P JOE BONSALL ATRUE AMERICAN ICON W THE OAK RIDGE BOYS LOST THIER BROTHER BUT UP IN HEAVEN W THE GOOD LORD ABOVE HE WILL BE SORELY MISSED

When I was Sheriff I was fortunate along my wife to spend 15 minutes alone with my wife. So kind original and common. Rest in peace Joe. God bless them all.

Rest In Peace, Joe. I've loved you and the Oak Ridgel Boys since I was 12 years old. I'm 54 years old now and 42 years later, and it still feels like the first time when I hear an inconic Oak Ridge Boys song. Fan for Life!❤

Heaven just gained another great singer!!! Sing high with the Angels Joe!! I know you are!! You will be missed here on Earth but we shall see you again singing on the streets of gold one day!! The Oaks will never be the same.

Joe Bonsall,Toby Keith, Rusty Golden and all the greats are singing with the ANGELS in HEAVEN 😢😢😢. Till we all meet again

I hope Joe, William and The Sheriff are together making music in heaven. RIP to them all.

I loved Joe so much. I saw him in 1980 in a concert in DAllas Texas. My heart is broken, because I know that he is a wonderful husband and that he is a great believer in GOD.

RIP Joe Bonsall. Say hello to George Younce and Glenn Payne and Harold Reid and so many others for me.

I saw the Oaks in concert 4 times. It is hard to believe there could be anything that could have slowed Joe down. He was always jumping and moving around the stage while singing his heart out. Joe, you will surely be missed down here and welcomed with arms open wide in Heaven.

Joe was one sweetest people. He was always friendly and truly loved his fans. It is sad to hear that we have lost him but God just added another great singer to the heavenly chior.

Love and prayers and sympathy for all of Joe's family and friends. ❤❤❤

I've had a lot of chances to meet him, even when his health was on the decline. He's one of the greatest country artists. Not unlike a lot of others. Because Joseph S Bonsall, will always be an Oak Ridge Boy, a friend & a brother. With love Joseph.

We will meet again in Heaven. I know you will be singing with Heaven’s choir. 😇😇❤️❤️😇😇

He will be missed. Looking forward to the day we wii all be together again.

🙏Sorry to hear the passing of Joe. Lifting family, friends and the Oak Ridge Boys in prayers for comfort. Rest in Peace, Joe.🙏

RIP Joe.You was a big part of my childhood in the 70s.My daddy only listened to country music. He probably had all the Oak Ridge Boys Albums. He was an old hillbilly.

This is The Oaks in such a great performance,with the Greatest Session Guitarist to ever come out of Nashville,The Oaks in Their Prime.

Another sad day in country music for sure

Love all the Oakridge Boys songs But my favorite is still Sail Away RIp Joe Bonsall 🙏

I’ve seen the Oaks probably 8 or 9 times over the years, and Joe was fearless to testify of his love for Christ. His passing is sad for us, but there’s joy in Heaven tonight as he is welcomed into his heavenly home!

July 2024 watched Joe joined the angels and having a little talk with Jesus. Rest in peace 🙏 🎉

One of my favorites, he was the life of the party…….RIP

R.I.P. Joe, you maybe gone but your voice and music will go on forever.

The Oak Ridge Boys are the greatest quartet ever. They were so good together and loved each other like brothers. RIP Joe. You will be missed.❤❤❤❤ Heaven’s choir has a new tenor now. You will be missed always.

I’ve been friends with Joe all my life. Even same with them on occasions in Branson. This is so sad. I have no words.

Loved these guys singing. God bless and RIP !!!!!

29 years ago I turned 16 years old. and my Uncle took me to Laughlin, NV to see the Oak Ridge Boys and Joe had jumped out of the plane and hit his head on the top of the doorway. and his head was bandaged up. I loved these guys since I was young.

There’s a high tenor voice around the Throne of God worshipping Jesus! I sure will miss him. But will see him soon!

I had the great pleasure of getting to meet Joe in Hendersonville, Tn. It was a pleasure to speak with him. He was easy to talk to and I will always remember that moment. Thank you Joe for a great memory and for all the wonderful years of great music.

My heart is broken😢 RIP Joe, you will be missed 🙏🏻💜🎶

Rip Joseph Sloan Bonsall Jr, you will be missed

I ALWAYS got a kick out of the energy Joe put into any of their songs. Bless his family with peace of knowing that he is free of any pain.

Thank you Joe for sharing your talent is a great sing tenor singer, for sharing your love for Jesus Christ, for sharing your love southern gospel music. You’ve touched Megan so people throughout the years that you’ve thought you’ve been singing with the Oak Ridge boys and the other two groups that you sang with. I can honestly say that I believe that you’re in the arms of Jesus on the day of your passing and took your first breath in those heavenly realms singing in the choir. I loved listening to you sing with your tenor voice. You were among the great city of the gospel singers that had a beautiful tenor voice your range was amazing !!! Rest in peace Joe, you’re with Jesus and the other great singers that are there in heaven with you. My prayers go out to his family, friends and to the Oak Ridge boys. I pray that God will wrap them in His arms and give them peace and comfort in their hearts today.

God bless you guys. You all have been dealing with a lot of heartache lately.🙏☝️💓😥

Icons of my youth. Thanks for the tunes Joe. Rest in peace.

I am so sad...Heaven is rejoicing with his coming home. Looking forward to meeting him up there someday soon!

When Joe died, so did the music. The Boys had a unique sound that will never be duplicated. Also, no one sings 'I'd Rather Have Jesus' as good as Golden. He sings it with conviction, and no one else comes close.

Joe Bonson will be missed by the music that he made and recorded.

I got to meet them about 10 years ago and it was amazing. I grew up on these guys. It was an honor to meet them. RIP Mr Joe Bonsall

Every Saturday, when my mom would do her weekly cleaning of the living room, she would turn on her phonograph record player that she bought in the 1950's. One of the records that she played was the Oak Ridge Boys greatest hits. Blessed be her memory, Mr Bonsal's, and my sister's memories. So glad that they both saw the Oak Ridge Boys in concert in St Cloud MN!

Got to see him perform at the Nebraska State Fair last year. He was awesome.😢

RIP Joe Bonsall. I met his parents when I installed CATV in their home in Philly. They were wonderful people.

I met him once at a concert in Wichita, KS! A true gentleman! You will be missed! You are lending your phenomenal voice to God's heavenly choir!

Have been a fan for 49 years heard on phone joe gad passed i sat in restaurant and cried. My pastor sang with Richard and joe carried messages back andforth love you joe and oaks prayers 😊

RIP...This brings sadness to my heart. I am not a big concert goer, but I saw these 4 more than any other performers. I saw them in Chicago for the first time in 1979 at Chicagofest. After that, I saw them 4-5 times at the Holiday Star Theatre in Merrillville, Indiana on New Years Eve. They used to come down to the Jolly Gingers Lounge and mingle with fans. God Bless all of them.

Oh no…. I saw him in concert had front row seat. He came up to me and shook my hand several times along with the other members. He was such a nice man the whole group was and they played their number one hit songs! They ended the concert singing “Elvira.” In fact we were the last ones out because we were so close to the stage I was able to set my phone up on the stage while I was dancing and swaying back & forth to their music! They came out after the concert & talked to us the lead singer to Exile who is best know for the hit song "I Want To Kiss You All Over" is married to the lead singer of The Oak Ridge Boys so we also got their autograph! I was so close I got great pictures too! What a great loss to Classic Country Music. It seems like we are losing all the Great Ones.Awe....now this really makes me cry as it was stated about Joe Bonsall "But JESUS and his family always came first-and we will see him again on the Promised Day.” Believe me I saw him in concert up close you could "see" Jesus in him! You really could!

RIP JOE BONSALL may god keep you in his glory

Joe was the energy behind the Oaks--Rest in Peace Joe.

Me and my wife patty met Joe getting of his tour bus at the same hotel we were staying at in north Georgia. Great man. We will miss his great voice. Praising his heavenly father now.
