Miranda Lambert turned to social media on Saturday (February 19th) to remember her 20-year band member, guitarist Scotty Wray, who died on Friday (February 18th). She shared several pictures, writing in part, "Heavy heart post. Last night I lost one of my most treasured friends, band mates and road family members, Scotty Wray . . . We met in 2001 in Greenville Texas. I was 17 . That was the beginning of our journey together . . . He was the one I could count on. Always. No matter what. If he was there on my right side I felt like I could take on the world. Scotty Wray was family to me and I’ll never sing a note without him because I know he is there with me . . ."
Miranda and Scotty even had matching tattoos, which she showed off in the post.
Scotty was also singer Collin Raye's older brother. Collin shared the news of Scotty's death on Facebook writing that he had been "suffering from an illness for some time" when he died on Friday in a care facility in Arkansas.
