92 years later, and I still believe the greatest blessings in life are faith, family, laughter, and the people we love along the way. Every year is a gift, friend, and I'm thankful for every moment God has allowed me to share with all of you. #PatBoone #Legendary #92YearsOld #Birthday #EnjoyEachMoment

Hi neighbor. I've been asked why I still wear my wedding ring and the answer is simple: it still means everything to me. As you can see, I wear two. One Shirley and I chose together later in our marriage, and the other one was bought by her father, Red Foley, when I asked for his permission to marry his daughter. We were both just 19, and we didn't want to spend another day apart. So we got married the very next day – just two days before Red was moving the family to Springfield, MO, for the Ozark Jubilee. This little ring is the one that started it all. It represents a lifetime of love, faith, family, and a promise that doesn't end here on earth. Wherever Shirley is, and I believe she's in heaven, she still has hers. And one day, we'll be together again. Until then and ever after, I wear this with gratitude and with love. #PatBoone #ShirleyBoone #ForeverLove #Marriage #FaithAndFamily

Elvis and I? We were real friends. Back when both our careers were just getting started, someone asked Elvis if there were any male singers he liked. He said, “Pat Boone. Pat Boone is the best ballad singer of ‘em all.” That meant the world to me. When he came by our house on Sundays, with the whole Boone family out by the pool, he wasn’t Elvis the superstar. He was just a friend. And I think, deep down, he wanted a little of the quiet family life he saw in our backyard. I never envied Elvis. I loved him. And I’ll always be grateful for his friendship. #ElvisPresley #RealFriendship #GoldenMemories #PatBooneStories #RocknRollHistory

I've been sitting here today thinking about my friend Elvis. I miss him, and I know many of you do too. Elvis and I spent time together over the years, and I remember him once telling me how much he wished he could go to church like I did. He worried that if he showed up, the whole service would be disrupted by people asking for autographs. I told him what I did when that happened, just tell the young folks you'll sign their church bulletins after the service, and then worship together first. Let the music and the fellowship come before anything else. Elvis had such a deep spiritual longing. In fact, he once asked me to help arrange a meeting with Oral Roberts, and they spent an afternoon talking together about faith. It meant a lot to him. Sometimes I think about how much Elvis loved the gospel music he grew up with, and how much he missed the simple joy of church fellowship. He had a heart that was searching, and I'll always remember that about him. #PatBoone #ElvisPresley #GospelMusic #FaithAndMusic #Memories

Hello, friends. I'm saddened by the news of Neil Sedaka's passing. We grew up in the business and stayed in touch through all the years. He was a guest on my SiriusXM show and we recently just met up at the diner down the street and reminisced like old friends do. Neil wrote and recorded so many great hit songs - his grand music legacy will live on forever. #NeilSedaka #RIPNeilSedaka #MusicLegend #SongwritingLegend #RememberingNeilSedaka

Hello, friends. I’m saddened today to have to say farewell to my dear long-time friend, Jesse Jackson. He was an icon, a leader, and a powerful voice for good and brotherhood, and we were brothers spiritually. I’m grateful for our friendship, and I look forward to the day we meet again, where there is perfect peace and no more division. Rest well, my friend. #JesseJackson #RestInPeace #Unity #BlackHistoryMonth #CivilRights

Hello, friends. It seems like America is in a civil war, an uncivil war, actually. Minute by minute, the news shows report what sounds like the total breakdown of our society. The Bible urges us in 1 Timothy 2:1-2 to pray for all people and all who are in authority; that we may lead quiet and peaceful lives marked by godliness and dignity. We may not always agree, but aren’t we neighbors and fellow citizens? God has the answer if we call on Him and ask for it.

Hello, friend. I don’t say this to boast, but I’m truly grateful to have played a small part in helping establish the National Day of Prayer as the first Thursday in May. With some dear friends, Shirley Dobson and Vonette Bright, we simply believed our nation needed a steady, united day to pray for our leaders and for one another. So would you join us in prayer today? #NationalDayofPrayer #PatBoone #RonaldReagan #Pray #PowerOfPrayer

Hello, friends. I’m sitting here quite moved as I watch the memorial service for my friend, Rev. Jesse Jackson. Years ago, on his Rainbow Coalition broadcast, his daughter Santita was interviewing me about my album We Are Family, where I had the joy of singing R&B classics alongside some of the greats. Jesse called in unexpectedly and said something I never forgot. He told his listeners in Chicago that he believed I helped bridge divides in the 1950s by honoring Black artists and their music, and by welcoming them as fellow performers and friends. I treasured that more than he ever knew. Today I honor him as a modern day apostle, motivated by the Holy Spirit, who lifted up generations with a simple, powerful truth: “I am somebody.” Rest in peace, my brother Jesse Jackson.

Hey friends. I don’t think I’ve revealed the time in my life when, in 1960, I received death threats for taking a stand against apartheid in South Africa. Restrictions regarding seating were lifted for my 10-day concert tour, and black and white audience members sat together.

This old Bible is one of my most cherished companions. Sometimes I open it at random and find exactly what I need. Today, I landed on Psalm 28, and it felt like the perfect prayer: “I pray to you, O Lord, my rock… The Lord is my strength and my shield. I trust him with all my heart... I burst out in songs of thanksgiving.” I sure did burst out in song, and I hope you do too. The Word of God speaks to all of us. You might find it just as hard to put down as I do. #PatBoone #FaithInAction #Psalm28 #GratefulHeart #ThankYouLord #ScriptureOfTheDay

Well now, here's a chapter of my life some folks may not know about. I helped start the ABA, the American Basketball Association, and I was the only entertainer involved. I owned the Oakland Oaks, and by God's grace we won the championship our second year with the great Rick Barry. I was proud as could be. But I'll tell you something else. When the ABA struggled, it nearly took me down with it. I was funding the team myself after my partner went bankrupt. We won a championship, and then I was staring at financial ruin. And then, almost miraculously, a gentleman flew in from Washington, D.C., walked into the Bank of America, and bought the team. That moment changed everything for me. Now Amazon has released a new docuseries, "Soul Power: The Legend of the American Basketball Association," telling the story of the rise and fall of the ABA and how it eventually merged with the NBA. It was the wild, colorful beginning of something that reshaped professional basketball forever. I'm grateful I got to be part of that history. It was risky, exhilarating, and yes, miraculous too. #ABA #SoulPower #BasketballHistory #OaklandOaks #RickBarry #PatBoone

Hi friend! A little fun fact for you, I helped start the American Basketball Association, and that's where the three-point shot was born. So every time you see one of those long shots go in, you can thank the ABA. I may have to tell Steph Curry one of these days... "You owe me, buddy!" #PatBoone #ABA #ThreePointShot #BasketballHistory #StephCurry

Hi neighbor. I'm just sitting here being happy. And you might wonder, how can that be with all that's going on in the world? Well, it's because I know how the story ends. This Easter reminds me that our hope isn't in circumstances, it's in God's promise. Easter isn't about eggs or bunnies, as fun as those may be. It's about the greatest gift ever given: God's love through His Son, and the promise of new life, both now and forever. When you know there's a joyful ending ahead, you can have peace and happiness right here today. Just draw near to Him, thank Him, and receive the love He's already given so freely. That's what makes me happy. #HappyEaster #FaithAndHope #HeIsRisen #GodsLove #PatBoone

When I was a young man, I thought I knew what success would look like. Maybe it meant being a star quarterback or becoming a teacher preacher. But life, and the Lord, had other plans. Then a man I didn’t even know led me to record a song and that first record turned into a million seller hit. Then came more songs and four and a half years of charting hits without a single week off the charts. I never dreamed of a music career unfolding quite like this. But I’ve learned that sometimes the doors that don’t open are just as important as the ones that do. Success isn't always what we plan, it’s what God prepares. #PatBoone #FaithAndFavor #GodsPlansAreGreater #GratefulHeart #UnexpectedBlessings

Hi friend. They call it Good Friday, and sometimes people ask, what’s so good about it? On that day, a good man, Jesus, gave His life on a cross. A life spent loving, healing, and blessing others. But the story didn’t end there. He rose again. And because He lives, we have the promise that we too can rise into new life, into hope, into eternity with Him. That’s what makes this day “good.” It’s a reminder of God’s love for us, and the gift of grace that was given so freely. Wishing you a peaceful and faith-filled Good Friday. #GoodFriday #FaithAndHope #HeIsRisen #GodsLove #PatBoone

Hi neighbor. I was looking through some old photographs today and came across this one of Shirley and me when we were just 18 years old. We were already in love and graduating from high school. Shirley was the Homecoming Queen, and somehow I was voted "Bachelor of Ugliness." I never quite figured out why that was supposed to be an honor, but it meant we got to stand together for the celebration! Little did we know that just a year after this picture was taken we'd be married, and before long we'd be on our way to raising four beautiful girls. But in that moment we were simply young, happy, and wonderfully in love. Looking back, I'm so grateful for the life and the love we shared. #PatBoone #ShirleyBoone #YoungLove #HighSchoolSweethearts #FamilyBlessings

Neighbor, whether you’ve been watching all along or are just joining me now, thank you. I’ve been sharing a few highlights from my 70 plus years of making music and memories, not to brag, but to celebrate all the help and joy I’ve had along the way. What a ride. Here I am at 91, closing out 2025 and looking ahead to 2026 with a full heart. And I don’t just wish you a Happy New Year, I pray for it. May you have a year full of joy, safety, health, and God’s presence in your life. Let’s walk into the new year with faith, gratitude, and maybe a little music, too. #HappyNewYear #PatBoone #GratefulHeart #FaithAndMusic #GodBlessYou #2026

Today, I’m sending a very special birthday wish to Shirley Jones. Many of you remember that Shirley and I made the film April Love together, and from that time on we became very dear friends. Over the years we’ve shared a lot of wonderful memories, including the day we took a photo together with many others who have stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. And there she is in the picture, leaning her head right on my shoulder. Shirley, I’m so grateful for our friendship all these years. Happy birthday to you, and many more! #PatBoone #ShirleyJones #AprilLove #HollywoodMemories #BirthdayWishes
