Reba McEntire remembers the day she lost her band in a horrific plane crash 32 years ago\n
Today, the wonderful Reba McEntire is 68 years old and she truly deserves all the praise she can get. Personally, it feels like she has been around all my life and I still listen to her, several times a week.\n
But everything hasn\u2019t been milk and honey in Reba\u2019s life \u2013 this year marks the 32nd anniversary of a plane disaster that claimed the lives of several of her friends.\n
After making her breakthrough in country music in the late 1970s and early 1980s, Reba McEntire was named \u201cbest singer\u201d four years in a row by the Country Music Association. She also, of course, has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.\n
But despite her fantastic career and all her success, life has also been pretty tough for Reba \u2013 she has had her fair share of personal tragedies.\n
In 2022, Reba\u2019s mother Jacqueline lost her battle with cancer , passing away at the age of 93.\n
\u201dShe had a wonderful, full, healthy life and was absolutely ready to go. The cancer might think it won the battle but we\u2019re giving God all the credit on selecting the time for her to go home to Him,\u201d the country star wrote on social media.\n
