Here's one of the tons out there -

Country legend Naomi Judd, of the Judds, dead at age 76

The shocking news comes just one day before the Judds were set to be inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame, and just 18 days after they'd announced their farewell tour.

I full on gasped when I saw this last night. So sad to hear.

I did, however, manage to find what seems to be the full 1991 Farewell Concert on YouTube, so I know what I’ll be watching later!

Unclear whether she died of mental illness -- but that she did suffer from it.

Suicide after undergoing electroshock therapy. Just like Ernest Hemingway. So tragic.

So, so sad. They have all been through so much. It wasn't too long ago that Ashley had some terrible accident in Africa...

She almost lost her leg after tripping over a fallen tree (broke it nonetheless!):
