Reba McEntire won the Country Music Association’s “best singer” award four times in a row following her breakthrough in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Naturally, she is also honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
However, Reba has also had her fair share of personal traumas, so life has not always been easy for her, even with her amazing profession and wealth.
Reba’s mother Jacqueline, at 93 years old, lost her fight with illness in 2022.
She was completely prepared to pass away and had lived a lovely, long, and healthy life. The country music performer posted on social media, “The cancer may believe it has won the fight, but we’re giving God all the credit for choosing the time for her to go home to Him.”
Jacqueline McEntire’s desire of becoming a professional country singer was always realized when she taught Reba to sing, fulfilling her dream via her daughter.
We all know how much she loved us, and she left knowing how much love she had.Reba remarked, “We have so many amazing memories, but we’re going to miss her.

Reba is well aware of the suffering associated with loss and grief.
Thirty-two years ago on March 16, she lost her tour manager in a horrific plane crash after a concert, along with seven other band members.
I recall that 1991 day. I heard about the crash on the radio as I was heading to work. I felt my heart skip a beat, thinking that Reba was on the plane too.
She wasn’t, though.
After playing in San Diego on March 16, 1991, Reba and her band were on their way to Fort Wayne, Indiana, for their next tour stop.
At the airport in San Diego, two flights were waiting; Reba, her husband, and manager spent the night in San Diego, while the band members and tour manager traveled on ahead.
Ten miles east of the airport, the first aircraft tragically met its demise.
Reba has frequently honored her deceased friends throughout the years.
She opened out about the day her band broke up in an emotional 2012 interview with Oprah Winfrey.
“Everyone on board was killed when the airplane’s tip struck a rock on the side of Otay Mountain,” McEntire said to Winfrey.
“Our pilot was contacted, and Narvel, Reba’s manager, went to meet with him to inform us of what had occurred. When Narvel returned to my hotel room at two or three in the morning, he informed me that one of the planes had crashed. I said, “Are they okay?” In his words, “I don’t think so.” “But you’re not sure?” I asked. I don’t think so, he said.
Reba remembered the events of the disaster, tears welling up in her eyes.
“Narvel was calling from room to room while holding a phone,” she started, stopping when tears welled up in her eyes. “I apologize, but even after 20 years, it seems like it will never stop hurting,” she remarked. But that chamber is visible to me. Narvel is moving back and forth, as I can see.
It’s been 32 years since the crash. She recently recalled the terrible events of that day by sharing a picture of her band on Instagram.
She shared another homage to her friends in 2020.
“I lost my pals in a plane tragedy 29 years ago today. It seems fitting that Mama passed away on that anniversary,” she writes.
“I am aware that they are all together in Heaven, looking out for one another. Let’s continue to look out for one another while we’re still on this planet and never take a moment for granted to spend with our loved ones.
Soon after, Reba’s admirers rallied behind the country music icon.
Many folks sent prayers and good vibes.
“Reba I’ve always admired your music, our mutual love of horses, and now that I follow you on Instagram.May God bless you and your mother. A fan wrote.
Reba showed once more this year, in 2023, that she still grieves the terrible loss of her pals and that she will never forget them.
She posted a video of the group performing together along with the message, “Their love for music and the stage gives us all the strength to go on.”
I apologize, Reba. You are an amazing woman; stay strong. You make so many people happy that there is a reason God has preserved you on this planet. Keep grinning!
Mia Robertson is overcome with emotion.
Mia Robertson, the actress Missy and actor Jase Robertson’s daughter from Duck Dynasty, lost a very dear person this week.
Her longtime doctor, Dr. David Genecov, was killed in a car crash. Missy Robertson informed her Instagram fans that Mia underwent surgery to repair her fractured palate and lip.
Since Dr. Genecov had been Mia’s doctor for a number of years prior to his passing, his passing has impacted her life.
He not only provided her with medical care, but he was also incredibly compassionate and supportive throughout. His passing has upset Mia and her family, who have loved their time together over the years.
Mia Robertson has been fortunate to have such a knowledgeable and compassionate pediatrician all of her childhood.

Missy Robertson talks about how she and her daughter, Mia Robertson, were affected by her husband’s kindness and unwavering support.
His loving demeanor brought them comfort, and his words of encouragement inspired them to take on any challenge. In July, Mia underwent her fourteenth surgery, which she believes to be the final one she will ever require.

She established the “Mia Moo Fund” in order to provide healthcare to other kids and free them from having to cover up their smiles due to health issues. Thanks in part to the encouragement of their family and friends who have stood with them through thick and thin, Missy and Mia are more important than ever.
Missy’s husband was polite and helpful, which helped stabilize and bring tranquility to an otherwise chaotic situation. His presence gave Mia the support she needed to face an uncertain future, which enabled her undergo her fourteenth treatment in July without anxiety.
In addition, he helped them become stronger than either of them could have imagined before these difficulties; day by day, they felt more capable of facing any challenges that came their way with bravery and elegance.
As a result of this journey, Mia founded the “Mia Moo Fund,” a nonprofit dedicated to helping kids in need of medical attention by providing financial assistance so they won’t have to give up their smiles for want of funds.
Mia received the heartbreaking news from Missy Robertson. Dr. Genecov left a lasting legacy of elegance and beauty, as well as a passionate desire to involve his patients in decision-making, that those who knew him best will never forget.
Mia considers herself lucky to have connected with Dr. David Genecov. He made an unrivaled contribution to her experience with broken lip and palate, as well as numerous medical advancements that will benefit future generations.
Mia’s mother begged everyone to pray for people who were in agony as a result of this tragedy, saying that she could no longer remember life before her appointment with Dr. David.
The family will always be grateful for the doctor’s contributions to medical advancements that have improved lives all across the world, and they will always have a special place in their hearts for his work and kindness at this difficult time.
