By Joshua Gardner and Ap Remarkable: Glen Campbell pictured here in 2012 during the farewell tour The country music legend known as as the rhinestone cowboy Glen Campbell was honored recently as his children performed following a screening of an upcoming documentary about his farewell tour. The 78-year-old star bravely performed his final 100-plus shows after receiving a devastating Alzheimer's diagnosis in 2011. The documentary, called Glen Campbell: I'll Be Me, reveals the performer--who is now in full-time care--was miraculously able to play guitar and sing perfectly despite his illness, though he at times appeared confused on-stage. Campbell's Alzheimer's disease has progressed to the point where he needs full-time professional care, his wife said in June, explaining her decision to place the singer in a long-term care facility and responding publicly for the first time to criticism from Campbell's eldest daughter.
