Randy Travis and Charlie Daniels were both inducted to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2016. But this isn’t the only bond the two shared.
On his Facebook page, Randy tells the story of the time that Charlie had a colt that was born on Randy’s birthday – so Charlie named it after Randy. And along with the post, Randy included a video that showed the two country music legends sharing a private moment backstage, sometime after Randy suffered a debilitating stroke that has kept him from performing since 2013.
In the video, Charlie and Randy can be heard talking about how bad Randy wants to get back on stage again. And then, Charlie asks Randy if he can pray for him – before taking his hand and bowing his head to ask for God’s blessings over his friend.
