Friends, as we celebrate Labor Day, I’m thinking about the millions of hardworking Americans who built this great nation with calloused hands and determined hearts. This country didn’t just happen. It was built by sacrifice, faith, and good old-fashioned hard work. That’s what inspired me to write and sing a song called “These Hands.” It’s a tribute to those weathered, strong hands that shaped our families and our freedom, hands that kept on working with heart and hope. So this Labor Day, let’s remember the real meaning behind it. Let’s honor the everyday heroes who put in the work to make America what it is. #LaborDay #TheseHands #AmericanSpirit #FaithAndWork #PatBoone #GodBlessAmerica #HardworkingHands

I am stunned. I can’t believe that my former next-door neighbor and good friend has passed suddenly. When he and Sharon and the kids lived next-door to me for a couple of years, we weren’t rock stars comparing careers – we were just friends and neighbors getting along just fine. I was amazed when Sharon picked my version of Ozzy‘s “Crazy Train” as the opening theme of their hugely successful reality TV show. Others may celebrate his incredible rocking style and hard rock music – but I’ll always remember his warm friendliness as my next-door neighbor. God bless you, Ozzy.
