Jerry Greer, Craig Morgan’s 19-year-old son died following a tubing accident on Sunday. Greer’s body was recovered late Monday.
Greer and a friend had an accident while tubing. Both were wearing life jackets when they fell into the water, but Greer never resurfaced.
Morgan’s reps sent out a statement saying the family is grateful for the outpouring of support, “and requests prayers at this time as they privately mourn this terrible loss.”
Florida Georgia Line shared a new song on Instagram following the shooting of multiple police officers in Dallas.
Tyler Hubbard wrote that the song off their upcoming Dig Your Roots album, “called Music is Healing,” has never rang more true. Saying, quote, “my heart is broken. Praying for this country.”
The song was posted underneath a pic of two police officers one white, one black. Each man has “his life matters” written on his hand, with an arrow underneath the words that points to the other officer.
