Fans In Tears At Kris Kristofferson’s Heartfelt Final Photograph

Most guys would need twelve lifetimes to do what Kris did in just one. In addition to being a multi-platinum performer, he was a shining figure on screen, costarring with Barbra Streisand in A figure Is Born (1976), for which he won a Golden Globe.

”He was something special”
“The first time I saw Kris performing at the Troubadour club in L.A., I knew he was something special,” his co-star, Streisand, shared on Instagram. “Barefoot and strumming his guitar, he seemed like the perfect choice for a script I was developing, which eventually became A Star Is Born.”

Kristofferson was also an Army ranger, a Rhodes scholar, a helicopter pilot, and above all, a storyteller.

His work touched generations, and as Georgia-bred country artist Channing Wilson poignantly put it on Instagram, “Kris, you left this world better than you found it.”

Even more amazing than the pictures and music was Kris’s heart. He supported gender equality and civil rights as social justice causes.

He continued to be involved in collecting money and publicity for causes like the United Farm Workers (UFW) even in his latter years.

Last Instagram photo
On September 28, Kris quietly departed from this life at his Maui, Hawaii, home. The reason of death was not stated.

Fans immediately showered Kris’s Instagram with accolades, recounting how his music had impacted their own lives. However, Tanya Tucker, a renowned country music performer, posted his final image online in April of this year, which really touched people.
