Four days later, the singer’s Facebook page announced that all remaining shows in August and September had been postponed. According to the post, Coe, his wife Kimberly, and the family had tested positive for COVID-19. Both Kimberly’s son and grandson tested positive as well, and have been recuperating at their home in Ormond Beach, Florida.
