I had the amazing pleasure of hanging out with Craig after a concert in Nashville many years ago. He is one of the most down to earth man. He is extremely humble. He even made sure that I had a good time at his concert. He is my favorite country artist. I am honored to say that I was able to spend about an hour talking with him on his tour bus that night.

I haven't even met Mr. Morgan but his song: This ain't nothing: changed my life. My mom, dad and neice (who I took care of and my niece raised) passed away one right after the other. I was 23 when all this happened, still in school and a provider job. The house I was living in caught fire so did the my car, and I gave up on life. It was like the last straw. Well when I heard that song, something changed. I heard that song close to 30 times a day. Loosing the house and car didn't seem so hard anymore. I survived the worst things in my life (death of my family) so anything I went through was nothing for me to give up on life. I still hold that true and number one rule in my life. Thank you for the life changing songs.

I lost my brother in a boating accident 20 years ago he was 38 and 5/1/2 years years ago my son at 27. I can tell you how my heart hurts for your family and your song is such a blessing to me. Thank you so much.

I had the pleasure of living next to Craig while we were stationed at Fort Polk, LA. One day my wife was walking our dog passed his quarters and heard music coming from the house... She asked Karen - who was singing - and she said oh, that's Craig. That same year he and Karen left the service to pursue his singing career; I am so very happy that he did and that he has seen so much success. I've been listening to his music from the beginning and his story telling ability has helped get me through multiple deployments, the associated loss of comrades and separation from family and friends. What I love about Craig is he has never stopped serving, he is still giving so much - now through his music. It is impossible to thank him for what his music has personally done for me over the years! Our thoughts and prayers are with the Morgan family and we wish them profound peace and happiness!

Living in the same county as this wonderful family is so humbling, Craig is a true hero and so talented. Prayers still going out to his family, his son graduated from the same high school as I did. Such a sweet family. Jerry was so popular and loved by everyone, just like his Dad.

Can we talk about how great it is to see Craig smiling again? 😊😊😊 Let Craig know you're ready for new music!

Craig, just saw you at the Grand Ole Opry and you sung your song about your son. So sorry for your loss. I know all to well the feelings you have. I too lost my son. It will be 2 years in June. Thank you for sharing tonight. May God continue to bless you and your family.

[joshdoherty]

Good on them to be able to talk about it and congrats on all these cool ventures they have going on RN

[pennymelyan]

The most difficult part about losing my husband was everytime I went to sleep and waking up to the fact that he was really gone. In my dreams while I was asleep he was still there, then to startle awake, and having my heart break everytime, with the reality that my mind and heart wasn't ready to accept. It is a pain you can never understand until you go through it yourself.

[jesseduenes]

As a father who has a child, I can relate to your pain. It's been 4 years since my baby girl went to be with Lord & there ain't a day that goes by that I'm not thinking about and missing her! It's only be the grace of God that I am still holding on.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful song & tribute to your son.
You & your family are in my prayers 🙏

Craig, you have touched people's lives with your music. Myself included. Your song, "Almost Home", touched me deeply after my sweet momma died. I would sit in her bedroom and listen to it over and over again. It reminded me so much of the stories she used to tell about her childhood. She was dirt poor, growing up in WV. She lost her daddy when she was just two years old to black lung, from those WV coal mines. She didn't have a good childhood but she remembered fondly climbing trees and living on an old dirt road. But the line about being able to smell his momma's fresh cobbler on the stove, that line came straight from her lips. When she was dying at home, in her own warm bed, at the age of 91, I remember wanting to wake her up and beg her to stay with me. But I didn't want to wake her up if she was almost home. 😢💔
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for that song. It helped me through her death by just being able to sit in her room and play it over and over listening for that one line about smelling her momma's fresh cobbler on the stove. God bless you and your family. I'm so very sorry for the loss of your sweet baby boy Jerry. Some children are just too good for this world so God takes them home earlier so this old wicked world won't hurt them, anymore than it already has. You and my sweet momma had a lot in common. She lost her baby boy when he was just 21 years old. Believe me, momma could've wrote that song. She couldn't wait to get to heaven to see her Father, her son and the Holy Ghost.

You hit home I lost my son and and I have 2 young kids I understand. And you are such and inspiring

[DanielDenoted]

Wow, so the whole time, I felt that he was singing about a biological son but he was adopted young and they never stopped loving him like their even better than what I originally thought.

[babyskittlestt]

I've lost 2 children, so I know how much hurt this family is going through. I pray God brings peace to them, and know that Jerry is watching over them all the time. God bless the Morgan family. From my family to yours.❤
