After a nearly four-decade professional career, the Statler Brothers decided to bring a stop to touring and held a final farewell concert in Salem, Virginia on October 26, 2002. The show was filmed for a DVD that was released the following year.
The group disbanded and retired after completing a farewell tour on October 26, 2002. Balsley and Don Reid continue to reside in Staunton, as did Harold Reid until his death in April 2020; Fortune, though, relocated to Nashville, where he continues his music career as a solo artist, having released three albums under his own name. The Statlers remain one of the most awarded acts in the history of country music.[
Don Reid has pursued a second career as an author. He has written six books of his own. Reid and his sons Donald II "Debo" and Langdon co-wrote You Know It's Christmas When . . . His brother Harold and he co-wrote a history of the Statler Brothers titled Random Memories, released in February 2008. In 2020, Reid wrote a complete anthology of the Statlers' songs, simply titled The Music of the Statler Brothers.
