June Carter Cash, the Grammy-winning member of one of country music's pioneering families and the wife of country giant Johnny Cash, died May 15 in a Nashville hospital of complications of heart surgery. She was 73.

"June said she knew me -- knew the kernel of me, deep inside, beneath the drugs and deceit and despair and anger and selfishness, and knew my loneliness," he wrote.
