The Late Joe Bonsall’s Unforgettable Moments on Larry’s Country Diner

Joe Bonsall, a longtime member of The Oak Ridge Boys who recently passed away, had many unforgettable moments performing with the legendary group on Larry’s Country Diner.

Sadly, and as ironic as it may sound, death is a part of life. It’s something that everyone on Earth will experience at one time or another. It doesn’t matter how rich, poor, famous or infamous you are; death waits for no man.

The best thing anyone can do is be prepared to meet that inevitable fate by forging a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ willingly went to the cross, suffering and dying in our place. He later rose from the grave, winning victory over sin, shame and death.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Joe and the guys gave several fantastic performances on the popular program. The video features Joe and the guys playing hits “Y'all Come Back Saloon,” “Life’s Railway to Heaven,” “I’d Rather Have Jesus,” and, of course, “Elvira.” The guys sound great in each appearance and show they still have it.

A statement on his website states that Joe Bonsall passed away on July 9, 2024, at the age of 76 due to complications from ALS. The statement goes on to mention several distinguished honors he received during his 50-year career as a member of The Oak Ridge Boys.

The statement mentions that Joe loved singing, reading and writing and was a fan of the Philadelphia Phillies baseball team. However, according to the statement, Jesus and his family came before everything else.

“Jesus and his family always came first – and we will see him again on the Promised Day.”

Joe used his God-given musical talent to help make the world a little better place.

Our prayers are with Joe’s family as they deal with their loss and navigate through this painful period.

John 11:26 “And no one who is living and has faith in me will ever see death. Is this your faith?”
