“[Recently] an expired military dependent (spouse’s) ID of a woman who has since been divorced from her military spouse was superglued to the marble on the marker,” Team CDB wrote in response to a TasteofCountry.com article about the continuing vandalism. “The family welcomes anyone leaving items, what they do not want is to have items glued to the marker, or have any trees that the family planted nearby (with the full consent of the cemetery owner) dug up and stolen.”
Daniels died July 6, 2020, at the age of 83 in Nashville following a large stroke. He was known far and wide for his amazing fiddle playing and being a staunch conservative and patriot.
He was also very religious; his grave marker includes a Biblical passage from Psalm 91, said to be his favorite.
