On the heels of Naomi Judd’s unexpected death on Saturday and The Judds’ induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame on Sunday, CMT is celebrating her vibrant life and extraordinary legacy with special programming.

“CMT REMEMBERS: NAOMI JUDD” will debut Tuesday, May 3, at 9p/8c on CMT. Four encore presentations are scheduled for Wednesday, May 4 at 8:30a/7:30c (CMT) and 8p/7c (CMT Music); Saturday, May 7, at 12p/11c (CMT) and Sunday, May 8, at 11a/10c (CMT Music).

The show will feature archival footage and interviews intertwined with memorable performances and moments from the past several decades of her career.

Judd's daughters, Wynonna Judd and Ashley Judd and her husband Larry Strickland confirmed her passing on Saturday. She was 76 years old.

“Today we sisters experienced a tragedy. We lost our beautiful mother to the disease of mental illness,” a statement from Wynonna Judd and Ashley Judd said. “We are shattered. We are navigating profound grief and know that as we loved her, she was loved by her public. We are in unknown territory.”
