It was announced on the show that Joe Elmore had died at the age of 80 following a long illness.“A long illness took the life of our beloved friend and Tennessee Crossroads host for 37 years this morning. There’s no easy way to say this,” the show wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.

“A great person and a close friend have died. We will miss his amazing skills, his kindness, and his great sense of humor,” said Ed Jones, Executive Producer of Tennessee Crossroads. “Tennessee Crossroads was his baby and as Joe would have wanted, it will continue, as will his spirit,” he added. The show promised to keep producing episodes. Tennessee Crossroads, a Nashville Public Television show, has been on air since 1986.
