Born on April 6, 1937 in Bakersfield, CA, he left a lasting impact on the genre until his death on April 6, 2016 in Palo Cedro, CA - coincidentally his 79th birthday. Throughout his career, Haggard married multiple times including Leona Williams from 1978 to 1983 and Theresa Lane Haggard from 1993 until his passing.
