The Man in Black is gone but not forgotten

From E! Online News well deserved honors:

"Johnny Cash was awarded three of Nashville's highest honors at the Country Music Association's 37th Annual Country Music Awards Wednesday--Single of the Year and Video of the Year for his cover of the Nine Inch Nails song 'Hurt,' and Album of the Year for American IV: The Man Comes Around.

The audience rose to its feet for an ovation as son John Carter Cash and daughter Kathy Cash accepted the awards for their late father.

'It's amazing my father had such a life that he could expose himself and still never lose his dignity and his charm,' Carter Cash said.
The award show featured a tribute to Cash, who died September 12 at age 71 from complications of diabetes. Artists such as Sheryl Crow, Kris Kristofferson, Willie Nelson and Hank Williams Jr. took the stage to perform some Cash classics. "
