When I read the news that Oak Ridge Boys singer Joe Bonsall had died on Thursday (July 9), my first thought was sadness at the loss of someone everyone in country music will remember as one of the genuinely bright lights in the business.

George Jones and Billy Ray Cyrus know how to honor fallen members of the United States military, but they’re not alone. Our list of the 12 best songs for Memorial Day could have swelled to 20 with ease. Tim McGraw‘s addition was debuted live during an awards show and was an instant classic. Go back a few years to find a hit song from the Dixie Chicks, and even further to find one from the Statler Brothers. The calendar only recognizes the sacrifices the men and women of the U.S. military make once each year, but country stars like Lee Brice do it at every show. Subscribe to Taste of Country on...
