Biography,Early yearsBorn Justin Roderick Strunk, Jr. in Jamestown, New York, he was raised in Buffalo, New York, where as a small boy his showmanship became evident. After he learned to play the banjo, Strunk began entertaining locals and went on to wide recognition after appearances on national television network shows such as Rowan & Martins Laugh-In and The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson.AcademicHe graduated from the Virginia Military Institute in 1959 with a B.A in History.Daisy A DayMain article: Daisy a DayAlthough much of Strunks material was humorous, his most popular song was not. Daisy a Day, which Strunk wrote and recorded in 1973, is a gentle, sentimental ballad in 3/4 time, describing the relationship between a boy and girl who ultimately grow old together. For every day of their lives, he gives her a daisy as a sign of their love. In the last verse, she has died, but her widower husband continues to make daily visits to her grave. The song made the Billboard Top 20 on both the country and pop music charts. A cover version Een Roosje, Mn Roosje (A Rose, My Rose) by Conny Vandenbos reached No. 7 on the Dutch Top 40 hit list in 1974.Laugh-InWhen Strunk performed this song on Rowan & Martins Laugh-In (seated on a stool and accompanying himself on banjo), a bizarre decision was made to film his performance on a set resembling a lunar landscape, apparently to remind the audience that this song had been played on the moon. Strunk was a regular member of the Laugh-In cast during its last season, he often reported fictitious sporting events direct from Farmington, Maine.Correction: The lunar surface explanation does not hold water. The final manned lunar landing, Apollo 17, occurred in December 1972. Strunk did not release Daisy until 1973.Other materialStrunk also wrote three humorous songs that made it into the country music charts, and he toured with the Andy Williams Road Show. One of these songs, The Biggest Parakeets in Town, was a tongue-in-cheek story of a woman who is a bird fancier. Its central joke is the unspoken pun of parakeets/pair otits used in the title. Other singles, such as Next Door Neighbors Kid and the patriotic My Country, appeared on various Billboard surveys. Strunk also scored a songwriting hit with “Bill Jones General Store” [sic], the title track of his 1971 album of a similar name, Canadian musician Tommy Hunter charted in the top 20 on the country and adult contemporary charts in Canada with the song.Last years and deathStrunk became a folk hero in Maine, and in 1970 narrowly lost the election for Senate seat in the state legislature. He was also a private pilot and purchased a 1941 Fairchild M62-A. On 5 October 1981, he suffered a heart attack while taking off in the aircraft at Carrabassett Valley Airport in Maine and was killed instantly along with his passenger, local businessman Dick Ayotte. He was 45 years old.LegacyJuds sons contribute to the Sugarloaf Community, with Juds grandson performing onstage at The Rack on Sunday afternoons.
