Born Porter Wayne Wagoner on August 12, 1927, in West Plains, Missouri, he spent hours as a child pretending to be an Opry performer, using a tree stump as a stage. Wagoner started in radio, then became a regular on ABC’s Ozark Mountain Jubilee, one of the first nationally televised country music shows. He signed with RCA Records in 1955 and joined the Grand Ole Opry in 1957, calling it “the greatest place in the world to have a career in country music.” Known as “The Thin Man From West Plains” because of his lanky frame, he launched his own TV show, “The Porter Wagoner Show” in 1960.

Parton inducted Wagoner to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2002 and was present when Wagoner was honored for his silver anniversary with the Opry in May 2007. She also visited him in the hospital as he battled cancer. Wagoner had a string of country hits in the ’60s, including “A Satisfied Mind,” “Misery Loves Company, Company’s Comin’,” “Skid …
