Congratulations, Mr. Pyle! I didn't realize how long you had to wait to be inducted until I read an article. Hopefully, Yes will be re-nominated and this time, inducted in 2017!

Rest in Peace Ed King, 1949-2018.

Rest easy, Ed.

With him now gone, Gary and Artimus are the only living inductees from LS.

Rest in Peace Larry Junstrom, original bassist (1968-1971) and one of the founders of Lynyrd Slynyrd, 1949-2019.

I pronounce the name "Linnard Skynyrd" despite what they say. Leonard wouldn't be spelt with a Y.

Rest in Peace Gary Rossington, guitarist and last surviving original member of Lynyrd Skynyrd, 1951-2023.
