FLORENCE, Ky. (AP) – Former country music singer Jack Reno, who recorded seven albums and performed at the Grand Ole Opry, has died. He was 72.

The Kentucky Enquirer reports that Reno appeared at the Grand Ole Opry six times and performed with country music legends such as Waylon Jennings and Dolly Parton.
