Loving both country music and America,\u00a0Toby Keith\u00a0never apologized for his beliefs or his thoughts. Never afraid to speak his mind, the singer fashioned a legendary career in country music. While selling over 40 million albums, Keith produced hit songs like \u201cShould\u2019ve Been a Cowboy\u201d and \u201cBeer for My Horses.\u201d Always willing to travel the world to entertain the military serving overseas, Keith sadly passed away on February 5, 2024, from stomach cancer. With Keith inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame, his son, Stelen Keith Covel, paid tribute to his father on the anniversary of his death.<\/p>\n

Posting a video of Keith, Stelen showcased the man\u00a0Keith\u00a0was outside of the spotlight. Sitting in a room, Keith performed the hit song \u201cIf I Was Jesus.\u201d Although knowing how to entertain a crowd of thousands, only a few people sat in on the performance. And in the video, Stelen can be seen scrolling through the words on his phone. He captioned the post, writing, \u201cA whole year without my hero. Here\u2019s to one day having more of these nights. Love you dad.\u201d<\/p>\n

With the post gaining over a thousand likes, Stelen\u2019s wife, Haley, also added her voice to the tribute when writing in the comments, \u201cSo many of these nights but this one was extra special.\u201d<\/p>\n

Toby Keith Was More Than A Country Singer \u2013 He Was An Amazing Father<\/h3>\n

Keith\u2019s daughter, Krystal, also paid tribute to her late father in her own Instagram post. Sharing a collage of pictures of her father, she wrote, \u201cIt feels like yesterday we said goodbye and yet it somehow has also been the longest year without him. I can\u2019t help but find gratitude in all the time we had because we did all of life as a family unit. It\u2019s hard to find a candid picture where he doesn\u2019t have one of our babies in his arms. He was their favorite, and they were his. Our littles miss their buddy big time but we all know we will see him again someday.\u201d<\/p>\n

While Keith\u2019s family continues to navigate life without him, Krystal didn\u2019t see it as a goodbye. \u201cUntil then, he will watch over us and walk beside us. Every sunset (and he LOOOOVED his sunsets) is a reminder that he wants us to live our best life and do good in the world. So that\u2019s exactly is what we will do.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
