    I met George and his wife, Nancy at the Austin Rodeo while selling my biography on the life of George Strait. Such a nice guy. I signed a copy for him and we talked music for 10 minutes. RIP Mr. Jones.

      You must be new to country music. Because George Jones and his nasally singing is the worst singer country music has ever immortalized, Plug you nose and try to sing and you've got this bozo. Hank Sr & Jr are better.
      Waylon. Chris, Johnny. Merle. Buck. Marty. Alan. Garth. Clint Black. Plus Lorenzo down the bloc are better singers than this bum. I hope you all know the people I listed are. But if you don't, it'd come as no surprise.

    When I was planning my daddy’s funeral service I included “It’s Finally Friday” I buried my daddy on a Friday and that just happened to be the Friday his co-workers got paid. That “$100 smoking in his billfold” a pack of Marlboro reds and a six pack and some George Jones on the radio. Miss you so much, daddy!

    His song He Stopped Loving Her Today always makes me think of my parents. They divorced after 25 years of marriage because of alcoholism. He never got over it, but his disease was too powerful. When my dad died, all of my siblings & I, along with our mom, stood around his bed as he took his last breath. After all the heartache, etc, they still loved each other, and thats what counted at that moment.

    George Jones is not only the greatest country music singer, he was and still is a warrior who always loved his fans and family. He lived through hard times, like abuse, served our country, divorce, alcohol abuse, alcohol and drug induced psychosis/schizophrenia "the duck and the old man in his voice", a near fatal accident in 1999 and did what he loved, singing his iconic 1980 smash before he passed away. George Jones will forever live in our hearts.

    My momma loved George and she passed that love on to my sister and I. I remember when i was a little girl coming home in the car and a song came on the radio by him my momma sang the entire song when it was over she looked at me and said now that is one man I’d leave your daddy for, scared me to death. I didn’t sleep for days i thought he was gonna sweep in and take my momma away. Years later i told my momma that and she got so upset that she worried me like that, my parents were married 48 years before my father passed away and now my beautiful momma is gone too, together at last.
