Post by maxine » Sat May 17, 2014 1:22 pm

I was really sad to hear that Glen Campbell's wife has had to put him in to a care home as his Alzhiemers has become worse...bless him ...can't even sing now from what I have read as he forgets ... :cry: ...

Yes, I think I saw this somewhere on the internet two or three weeks ago. It is a great shame.

Glen Campbell was a gret entertainer, I saw him years ago with my mum and dad.

I knew of his Alzheimer's but sad to hear he has got worse.
