ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) – Randy Travis has written an open letter thanking fans for their support following his unexpected appearance at the Academy of Country Music Awards on Sunday. Travis suffered a stroke two years ago and is unable to speak. He writes on his website, Mary reads every card and letter to him and they’ve gotten him through the darkest days. Travis says he still has a lot of music he wants to share, and while he works through therapy to regain his strength, he hopes his “songs of yesterday continue to touch your life in some way.”

The country superstar married Mary Davis on March 21, confirms Travis’ rep, Kirt Webster. The two have been engaged since before his devastating stroke in July 2013.
