At the age of 66, Travis is once again facing serious health issues, as indicated by a statement released moments ago from Nashville.
The update, provided by his wife Mary Travis, outlines a “serious and unexpected setback” concerning his ongoing health struggles resulting from the severe stroke he experienced in 2013.

Although the family has not disclosed complete details, they stressed that Randy is “surrounded by love, faith, and the finest medical care available.” They also requested privacy as they navigate this challenging time.
This news has reverberated throughout the country music community. Travis, celebrated for songs such as “Forever and Ever, Amen,” “Three Wooden Crosses,” and “Deeper Than the Holler,” represents more than just a performer — he embodies strength, redemption, and resilience. His brave return to public life after a near-fatal incident in 2013 has inspired both fans and fellow artists.
