Country singer Miranda Lambert has cancelled a concert in Florida on Friday (03Feb12) so she can attend the funeral of a close friend.
The House That Built Me star was left distraught last week (end29Jan12) following the death of her childhood pal Mark Adams, who died when a car struck him as he was helping a stranded driver by the side of the road.
Lambert, who also lost her father-in-law earlier this month (Jan12), took to her Twitter.com page to express her sadness over his death, writing, "I have lost a friend I've had since 3rd grade today in a tragic accident. When will this pain end. Please pray for peace."
She has now axed her gig in Tallahassee to pay her respects at Adams' funeral.
Lambert is expected to pick up her tour again in Orlando, Florida on Saturday (04Jan12).
