This star-studded list includes Kenny Chesney, Zac Brown, Eric Church, Sheryl Crow, Jake Owen, Jack Johnson, Pitbull, Eagles, Jon Bon Jovi, and Brandi Carlile, to name a few.

It is pertinent to mention here that Jimmy Buffett was a beloved musician known for his blockbuster tracks like A Pirate Looks at Forty, Fins, Margaritaville, Come Monday, Cheeseburger in Paradise, Volcano, and others.

In the words of Jimmy’s close friend, Tom McGuane, "He was always high-spirited, fun-loving, hard-working and creative," reported People.

"It is remarkable to be able to say that he remained the same during the last month of his life. His sense of humor was fully intact. God bless him for keeping himself that way," Tom McGuane shared about his friend's last moments.
