Naomi Judd’s husband, Larry Strickland, knew just how much his wife enjoyed meeting new people. On Sunday, Strickland spoke out for the first time since his wife’s death as part of CMT’s “Naomi Judd: A River of Time” memorial special. “Naomi never met a stranger,” Larry said while on stage with Naomi’s daughters, Ashley and Wynonna Judd. “Much to my displeasure, she would start a conversation with anyone who made eye contact with her, and we would end up standing 10, 20, 30 minutes on a sidewalk while she talked to a complete stranger about their passions and their dog.” Larry, who married Naomi in 1989, shared that his wife recently took a solo flight from Georgia to Nashville, noting that it was rare for her to fly alone.

However, Naomi needed to make it back to Nashville in time for the Country Music Hall of Fame ceremony, which took place a day after her tragic death. “I was really scared to death about her flying alone all the way from Vienna back to Nashville cause I knew how fragile she was,” Larry said. “Well, she made the flight home back to Nashville without any problem.” Larry shared that he received an email from a man who sat with Naomi on the flight.

He called the email “a relief and comfort,” before reading the message from the stranger. In the letter, the man admitted that he didn’t know that Naomi was famous, but the “next 90 minutes we spent in each other’s company was not only entertaining, fascinating and enlightening, but for me at least, thoroughly enjoyable.” “It’s a small comfort, I’m sure, but my life seems a lot richer after meeting your wife, however briefly,” read the letter.
