We are sending peace and love to Scotty McCreery and his family. On Wednesday, July 9, both of the “Five More Minutes” singer’s grandmothers were called home. McCreery and his mother, Judy, shared the devastating news on social media along with happy memories of family’s matriarchs. Scotty ended his statement by saying both of his grandmas taught him what love is all about, and he will miss them dearly.
An official statement has been released regarding Conner Smith and the fatal accident he was involved in last month. After an extensive investigation, the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department issued a misdemeanor citation for failure to yield, resulting in a fatality. The statement goes on to say that the “Creek Will Rise” singer’s thoughts are with the 77-year-old woman’s family and he is committed to honoring her memory.
I’m Sheena, and that’s your Music City Minute.
