   For those that don't follow the TV news regularly, do not get a daily   
   newspaper, may have simply overlooked it or just celebrity fans that   
   read this group because it's entertainment related -   
      
   Jerry Reed, known for his onscreen antics with Burt Reynolds as much   
   as for his musical virtuosity, died in hospice care in Nashville   
   September 2, according to the Tennessean.   
   Reed, 71, had been suffering from emphysema.   
   Before he became "The Snowman" sidekick in "Smokey & The Bandit," he   
   was already regarded as an accomplished musician, known for his   
   syncopated guitar work and for his hits "When You're Hot, You're Hot,"   
   "Amos Moses," and "Lord Mr. Ford."   
   He wrote songs for Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Porter Wagoner, Brenda   
   Lee and others, according to the paper.
