After the news broke of his passing, many stars commented on the life and legacy of Glen Campbell. One of those people remembering Glen is Jake Owen, who took to Facebook to pay tribute to the legendary singer. Jake shared his version of Glen’s iconic hit “Wichita Lineman.” Along with his music tribute, Jake added the following note to the post, “We lost one of the greatest voices, guitar players and entertainer that our world has ever seen. Glen Campbell. It seems this year has been filled with these moments where we’ve lost people that have enriched our lives with their pure talent. This is a huge loss for country music. Maybe Glen and Merle are picking a tune together right now. If so, I bet my Grandad is right there with a front row ticket. Life is short. Enjoy it while it’s here.” Glen Campbell passed away on August 8th 2017 at the age of 81.
