The attorney for his children is a real treasure.
She sure is
To kick his Mother out of the house that he bought for her is pure Evil! That's about as low as you can go!
Karma will get them for that!!
I knew Conway Twitty. He would not have gone along with Dee's actions. He meant for his children to inherit his music and his intellectual property. Dee should have gone to jail.
along with those 2 swindler executors..you can bet there's missing money and they Stole things and hid things in those boxes removed.. shamefull. dee was nothing but a golddigger sleeping on the side with that 1 executor..too buddy buddy all along.
Hi. Any relation to Rodney Crowell? Thank you for the comments. I agree that Dee was robbing the kids.
I live in Tennessee and yes this is how our justice system is. People love to live in Tennessee but they don't know our justice system. Welcome to Tennessee our prisons have a little bit more room..
Remember the fight over the car. The duster.
Children got spanked Thts ALL!! 👏🏽🙃
Money isn’t the root of all evil
The love of money is
Countless families, including my own, have been torn to shreds by unconscionable executors. It's gratifying that Conway's adult children were finally able to get well-deserved, long-overdue justice.
One can love money its when they become greedy it destroys them

(As with all things in this life) "It's in the way that you use it" -- Eric Clapton
Exactly!
BRAVO....well said my friend👍😁👍
The judge who initially caved to Dee's interests just adds to the growing awareness that donning a robe does not indicate wisdom or honor.
I so agree. Its incredible that Judges are not held accountable. Judges should be immediately held accountable when power is being abused. They are part of this Lawless Society we sadly & shamefully live in. 😮😢 "Isa"
I agree! Poorly handled by the judge.
He probably got bribed
Well said 👍
I agree with your statement
The fact that his widow allowed his mother to be removed from her home says all one needs to know about her character
His wife had her removed, I would bet on it, she married him for his money she wanted it all i have zero respect for her
Exactly. She's callus.
Totally agree!! You loved Conway so much to do what you did to his precious mother? Nothing else needs to be said about why Dee wanted to marry Conway. $$$$$$$
He loved his Mom! He would have turned over in his grave if he knew his wife put her out in the cold to fan for herself at 80???? What??? That's just cruel!!! Shame on her!!!
I don’t understand how this happened as the widow was left in more comfort than most could dream. She wasn’t left out of the Will. This is every child’s worst nightmare.
Yes I been through it. & she got away with $5.5 million 🤬
Greed.
I think the executor was smitten with Dee.. Conway wants were not put in place. Conway trusted these two executors and they failed Conway!! His daughters fought for what was right and thank goodness they won, but what they went through and how much it cost them is shameful! Conway’s music will always live on..❤
I love listening to Don't Cry Joni. She gets the satisfaction that recording it with her father can never be taken from her
@@michaelstamper3096pm
It’s obvious he had the hots for her.
I was a kid when Conway Twitty was at his peak and I heard the song ,Its Only Make Believe and a few other hits. I was hooked on him. He was such an amazing song writer.
As a child I LOVED HIS music and still love his music.
So tragic he died too young and that he sustained the brain injury.
I fell in love with
❤😊it's only make believe
It was only make believe was my FAVORITE
Dee and the executor should have been sanctioned and the courts that allowed so much to go on should be held liable! Conway Twitty will never be forgotten. Despite his wife land the executor’
Money cuts a lot of ties. Death becomes greed when a rich person dies
The movie greed again
Yeah look at the family of James Brown. Sad
Conway was such a great talent I remember when he passed way to young ..that's the problem the wife thinks shes over blood
It can if you have people pushing against you like his wife, D Orbison that guy who is he he’s a nobody those people should stay out of the family and peoples photographs and peoples records. Those are all genealogy that belong to a person with that has their name on it, tell you that country guy that was talking as if he was talking for Conway Twitty yeah he was against the kids. That’s what he was and I’ll never go to any of his concerts 49:52 49:52 49:52 49:52 . I’ll never go to anybody that he is representing again ever or whatever name is
Went to see Conway in concert. He came on stage and first thing he said was “Hello darlin”. Such a great entertainer
How could the judge dismiss Conway's wishes? Horrible judge. My heart goes out to the children. I can relate.
The family could sue the judge n court
😢
I can relate , she got away with 5.5 million 🤦🏼♂️😠Smdh
@@nickrenteria7037😮😮😮😅t wash. I
I can relate too.. my sister in law managed to take , either stole or hid what didn’t belong to her & my brother allowed it to happen!
I do believe he waited for his kids to get there. That happens very often!
I've loved Conway Twitty from the time I first heard that incredibly phenomenal voice!! He has so much passion & strength when he sings!!
My husband & had his tapes everywhere. In the car our house Conway went with us everywhere.
🩵 RIP CONWAY TWITTY.
The grifters say it was all anout the music. The legacy he was building was for the future for his children and his grandchildren. Shame on the executors for not respecting his family. Shame on executors for not allowing family members to have their keepsakes
They converted his life into $$. His family were his life.
His family WAS his life. Not were.
There was no sense of decency or compassion in the way they treated his children after their beloved father died. Conway Twitty was probably rolling in his grave.
Maybe C. disrespected his family by marrying his daughter's friend...
@@rcekrizpi9947 she sure turned out to be a lousy friend!
What did D and Conway discuss about the future if something happened and what did D with hold .I think she had a lot to do with his divorce.
His mother was kicked out and his children. He lived for a short time in my town, when he was a teen. I’ve always heard that he would pick guitars with my uncles on the porch. Conway will never be forgotten. My heart goes out to his children and ex wife, whose letters, were put on auction. His widow, should be ashamed of herself.
His wife should've been ashamed selling family pictures
If the kids had treated her differently!!! The second wife would be done things differently
If the kids had treated her differently!!! The second wife would be done things differently
I agree
Sickening
Absolutely no way I could’ve done what Dee did regardless how I felt about his children No Way! That’s his Children!🕊️🙏🏻
What I see really wrong is that Dee, gave no regard to the grown children of Conway Twitty, she sold off at auction personal property. Dee should have let the family come to the estate and take what Mementos of their father that meant so much to them. Then Dee had the family members moved off the property from their homes.
Wow! I didn't know about this court battles over his estate. Conway Twitty 's music was my favorite. I will never forget Conway. My heart goes out to his children.
Can you imagine watching your family’s personal documents, letters and photos being sold at auction. Absolutely disgusting! Shows the wife was a vindictive cow! I’m so glad they got their rites to his music…..that how it should be!
Thank You 😄😄
@@FloridaProud7684imagine being so vindictive and controlling to do all that just out of spite.
Dee got more than she deserves with what she did get
Ain't nobody forgot about Conway!
Well, I didn't know about the struggle that the children had and my heart was breaking for them. We played (at our mothers funeral) that song "Hello Darling" as it was one of mother's favorite. She used to listen to ConwY and Loretta songs... wish the children knew how much their dad was loved.
😂😂😂😂🎉🎉😂🎉😂😂😂😂❤❤😂😊qq😊@@louisewelch5451
I remember discovering snd listening to Conway Twitty in my mid teens. It's shocking yo learn of the deplorable actions of Dee and the executors of his will. Very heartbreaking what they put his children through. Delighted they won in the end.
Conway Twitty is a legend and his memory lives on.❤❤
What’s the point of a will if it can just be fought and changed in court!?! 🤷♀️🙄
IKR, Just like the Hippa law. Government all around DOES WHAT THEY WANT
TN spouse gets one-third overrode it .. but where Dee listed and boxed assets … what a conflict of interest!!!! How could that be allowed? She and the two executors are self serving and hard hearted to take those children’s inheritance and personal momentos! There’s a special place for them. And Robert Orr is disgusting.
Will can be contested but Living will is more secure.
@@debrataylor1719is
I think you mean a Living Trust.
I don't know why when these people who are rich don't give their kids what they want them to have before they get ill.
Conway was about his kids he wouldnt have wanted this
Money cuts a lot of ties
This was an unethical decision by the lawyers and judge to go against Conways children. His widow didn’t and should not have been involved with the executors of the estate. The items should have gone directly to the children and their mother.
But two ladies had his children. Even if dee did get a portion, his kids would be ok
If Conway Twitty was so in love with his third wife, he would have changed his will to reflect that. Also, she's lucky they lived in Tennessee because she might not have gotten what she did if they had been in another state.
Parts of Tennessee are DEFINITELY CORRUPT!!!!
SUCH AS SELMER, TENNESSEE!!!!
CONWAY TWITTY would be furious. He loved his children and look how they were treated. It's such a shame that Conway City had to be sold. I was there many times and each time I went more attractions would be added. I sure wouldn't have been on D's side.
Robert Oerman sounds like he's romantically involved with Dee!! Hmmmm? The way he speaks of her is over the top for just a friendship!
I sincerely feel for the entire family of Conway Twitty. Sounds like Conway's "friend" was missing the cash flow. Sounds likely the executors & Dee knew where the offshore $ went too....judges/criminals payoffs. Whole thing sounds like a coverup to get more $. Some years back when I saw a couple of media releases, my heart really hurt for Conway's adult children.
My own 😢daughters' & I had a similar shock when my mother died in 2012. It's a book of itself of what criminal minds can resort to when criminals are not inprisoned for the crimes they commit. 😢
Totally Agree!
I agree
💯 % agree with you. He sounds very delusional in this episode.
I thought so too
Love his music. He is greatly missed. Rip Conway
Greed is ridiculous
Greed is nothing but EVIL!
My husband and I had tickets to see him at Lanier Land Country Music Park near Gainesville Georgia.
We were so sad to hear the news of his demise. He is a legend. Women swooned to hear him growl out his songs.
He was always loved and he is missed very much.
The reason Conway was not well served is because his wife of 2 years decided to sell the state off when she had no, right.This is sickening.I'm so glad they changed the law
I sure hope the executor and ex went to prison. What a shame.
They were married 5 yrs.
He left her out.
So what. Dee wasn't worth a dime
@@gregorylyon1004
He had 5 years to change it not a short time.
He purposely left her out.
@stephaniehowe0973 * Clearly he left her out deliberately. Even if he chose to wait a couple years to see if their marriage was real, still he didn't change his will. The fact that "D" chose to sell personal items like pics, gosh that definitely shows how evil she is, period. So very sad. 😢 "Isa"
@@FemiNelson-sb1em
That is exactly what I said
She was chasing his coattails, and stole everything she got!
The day Conway died a Opry star called me and said can u come take my blood pressure. He had a history of heart issues and was scared he was next. He is gone now too.😢
I hadn’t heard non of this, that is Horrible, anyone that was buying Conway’s stuff, should have been gave back to the Children, This is Horrible! So very sad!
Given back to his children. Not gave back to his children. Grammar 101
The executor and the latest wife is driven by greed and shameless
SHAMELESSNESS.
Was the wife? Really? She knew she was entitled to a certain amount, so why shouldn’t she get her share as well?
His wife wasn't worth a dime. Conway was her cash cow
@@lisajeter9511she didn't want a share wanted all
That's what it sounds like to me too. If she loved Conway she would have never auctioned off his children's pictures and personal belongings. She would have made sure the children got what was rightfully thiers if she loved Conway. If she was a decent person she would have gave all those things to his children. That's just wrong I don't care what the law says. Sure the wife deserves something, but so does the kids. She should've been able to live there at the house and so should the kids grandmother. When the wife dies then the children get everything. Split it equally through all the children. They should have gotten all of his music rights too. So sad things like this happen because of greedy people. At the end of the day Conways children deserved better than this.
The kids were supposed to get Twitty City and keep it going and continue to live there. That's what was supposed to happen.
Wow..What a mess...I'm glad to be rich in the heart and not from greed of others properties..
Robert Orman standing up for Dee is sickening 😢
Woow. I would have been very curious about the decision to disinter and cremate the body. VERY CURIOUS.
This was very oddddd-a
Almost like she wanted to “hide” something. 😠
Evil as she’s been, she’d probably be the one to deface the headstone herself, then have this excuse to disinter his body, and cremate. 🤨
Thank you so much to the lady that helped them.
I SEEN HIM AT BROWN COUNTY INDIANA RIGHT BEFORE HE DIED 😊❤
R.I.P. CONWAY, YOUR MUSIC 🎶🎶🎶 LIVES ON WITH US❤❤❤❤ greed for gain, I'm glad the kids won.
They should do Aretha Franklin and Prince next (they are two of my favorite singers). I grew up listening to Conway Twitty though I am more of a rock and roller, and also listen to classic country and other music genres. Loved his duets with Loretta Lynn.
It would be great if this show would do new material. This was all done back in the mid 2000 if my memory serves me correctly.
People become other people when someone passes.
It's all about money
Boy oh boy people do change when someone dies. My oldest brother was so greedy when my died that he was prying the safe open in my parents room before my dad's body was cold and stealing from mom that same night right after dad died. I know there is alot of our personal things from our at his house and I am positive my mom's jewelry was stolen and either sold or waiting to go to my niece's and nephew after their parents pass. I did get my mom's wedding/engagement rings and few other things.
Money and greed ruins people
What surprised me most was the selfishness of D and their cruelty towards the children. D and the executors must have known that Conway Twitty would not have wanted his children to be treated that way (abused, really). I can't even imagine my stepmother being so horrible after my Dad (my hero) passed.
Well she had only been a stepmother for 5 years. She probably had zero feelings for the whole family.
@@mycharmedunicorn8715 l guess that's how she was, l just don't understand it. I love my husband's family as my own and have since I fell in love with him. How can one not care about their husband's children and be so awful to them? I just don't get it.
She embodied the term wicked stepmother!
I can't believe that the children and their mother didn't own their own homes
Human beings never cease to amaze me greed is amazing Conway died way too young
My husband and I danced our first dance to already loved you in my mind ❤❤❤
What a tragedy to his children and Conway. I am glad his kids fought for his Dad.
Conway was my grandma's favorite singer and my aunt got him to sing hello darling to her when he done a show in I can't remember if it was Virginia or North Carolina but the two women traveled to go see him and that was one of the greatest moments in my grandma's life.
I always loved listening to Conway grew up listening to his music my mom played guitar and sang his song I still til today love listening to Conway
First of all, I am so saddened watching this video and seeing the HORRIBLE way his children were treated by someone who didn't deserve what she did end up with!! I literally grew up on Conway's music from a very small child. When I was 8 years old my parents took my Brother and I to a local restaurant to grab burgers for supper, and there sat his bus....The Twitty Bird. That night I not only met Conway, but he picked me up and gave me a kiss on the cheek, and signed autographs for my Mama and I. I will NEVER, EVER forget that night. I have loved him and his music ALL of my life!! I hope he's singing "Hello Darlin'" to my sweet Mama right now in Heaven, as my Brother and I lost our precious Mama on April 26, 2018 on my Daddy and his twin Brother's Birthday 😭. Rest In Paradise Conway, and please give Mama hugs from us. I will never forget you, and I will always love you and your music!!!!
I love his song Picking Wild Mountain Berries with Lynn, his voice is one you never forget even if you've never heard his name.
This is the second of these Will documentaries. Very interesting. I look forward to watching more. Subscribed.
Me too. Watch the one on Hank Williams daughter.
Conway should have updated his will when he first married Dee and none of this would have happened
And a prenup, which would have saved a lot of grief when Conway remarried. A prenup would have protected his kids' interests in the event of a divorce and/or death, specifying how much Dee would receive if they were married 5 years, 10 years if a divorce happened, she would get a certain amount of money after his death, and a share in publishing rights. No wonder singers like Neil Young, Bob Dylan, CSN, Stevie Nicks, Bruce Springsteen are selling their catalogs to publishing companies; they want to avoid estate disputes between their families while their music is being used in commercials, TV, movies and online.
Dee would have never married him if she had to sign a prenup
Yeah, a pre-nup would have been the smart thing to have done. Most likely the kids would have gotten it all bc not many would have married under those circumstances.
These ruch old men need to leave these young girls alone. Conway should of known Dee only wanted his money but he wanted her because she was so young.
This is so sad that his children were treated so badly. Dee should be ashamed of herself 😢
I was fortunate to see Conway in concert many times. Also with him and Loretta Lynn. I was able to meet him when we visited Twitty City. What wonderful memories. He was so proud that he had his mother and children all living near him.
100%
His children did right
Now
Start promoting your dad and his music
For him
❤
This is the saddest story I have heard!
Check out Tammy Wynett's sad story!!
This is absolutely horrible!! Dee is a greedy woman!! If you want to know about someone’s character, observe their behavior when a family member dies! My crazy cousin did not even attend her mother’s funeral because she was 1/2 mile away at her mother’s home loading up everything she could take while we were in the church!
@@bbe3034I wonder how these awful people can sleep at night. I could NEVER, EVER do something like that to someone, much less a family member that way. I hope those people receive karma.
You really have to watch who you marry
So we, sorry but that queen Robert Oermann Is obviously a friend & was making money along with the 3rd wife off his legacy🎯🎯🎯🎯 he was bias catty and really unneeded in this documentary…shame on them, I’m glad the sisters didn’t back down ….where were the brothers in all this? The way things are now with internet music the money they spent will come back to them 10fold ❤❤❤❤❤ blessings to his family
I know that whole family and knew Conway. Sooo much drama a lot of people don’t know about.
@@Sergigrinkovvolponyfan I’m sure there was!!
@@Sergigrinkovvolponyfan tell us about the drama you know about
Dee was totally wrong along with Robert and the executors!
The judge was wrong. The will said that the heirs could remove the executors. The judge should have honored the will.
❤iloveihavetowlawpappyiamgotowsingthatsaidthadwilldotherestwifttookisisnotyourbrownrocktoldyougadiitall😊😊😊psiamgotowfifytyouforismy😊
I’ve always respected Robert Orman but not on this one.
One of my favorite country singer
I still listen to and love Conway Twitty. Such beautiful music.
Everyone hasn't forgotten him. They can advertise his music. Im sure some still want his songs.
Dee shouldn’t get nothing. Dee wanted the money. All of Conway music way before Conway & dee marriage belong to his children. Conway loved his kids and he even built each one a house they had to leave. Dee is a money grabber and Conway children could have made a farewell to there father. Conway music belong to his children not Nashville.
What an evil woman to do that to Conway children!
Probate judges are the worst. They’re so corrupt. Dee shouldn’t have been allowed to be apart of the executor process. She wasn’t even mentioned in the will!! She should’ve gotten the house that she shared with Conway, worth $1.8M, and that’s it. I’m usually on the woman’s side in this type of situation because he married her, but not this spiteful greedy woman. She should’ve went to jail. How were the executors allowed to fight the will in court using money from the estate? Makes no sense!
I was raised to acknowledge the difference between bad and evil.
It's a shame some ppl cannot respect or be honorable. Just remember. Life is short. And the Supreme Judge will handle all of it.
Shame there is no more Twitty City 😢
They would have made money too open a place like Graceland .And divide the money that way. And kept his legacy going.Greed will do it everytime.He work so hard and and didn't get too retire and enjoy his money and their were plenty too go around.
A AAA is sudden and it hits you out of the blue. If you don’t get into surgery within minutes you don’t stand a chance. You can bleed to death in less than 10 minutes from the time the Aorta starts to Rupture! At least they caught it, most people aren’t that lucky especially since it usually starts out as back pain most of the time. Most people won’t think of the urgency of back pain.
I believe John Ritter died of the same thing.
@@maryhalverson5713 Ritter's brother Tom (the one who has cerebal palsy) also had this condition, but it was caught in time because of John's history.
What was it that Conway Twitty 😢 died from?I didn't understand thank you ❤
I had AAA surgery last year, caught it on a CT scan. It was over 7 cm. I'm very lucky!
He is singing in Heaven with all his friends and family! ❤
I have ever record of Conway .play it in my car always 🥰❤️🥰
If this didn't include an update: his children finally won the rights to his music and likeness, I want to say there was something else as well.
Well Dee did not grieve long, she married a wealthy man from Ms and he died soon after also.
I just love too lay you down!
Games daddy played
Mississippi women
The letter
Happy birthday darling was my favorite of him
Terrible thing to happen. Greed. My late husbands cousin they sold the pictures and everything at yard sales . This was the second wife. Image the first kids finding their old pictures like that.
Greed has no limits
So sad
Wow what a horrible situation for the kids. Dee should be ashamed of herself and I hope Karma gets her in the end.
DON'T TAKE IT AWAY i love that song along with all the rest he made 💔💔💔
Sir Connway (aka Twitty Bird) will for ever be one of my all time favorite sings...wish raido stations would play more of his songs again .... 😢
The action of the judge was deplorable. Judges like this should be able to be taken off the bench. If they can't make intelligent decisions, they should not be where they are. Dee was the most greedy shark in the pool, only caring about herself I'm sure. Conway Twitty loved his children and would n't go along with her decisions. Also, he produced those children and he should be there to support them when he's gone. That's the way he would have wanted it. They could have made it so his legacy lasted like Elvis. His home could have been a Graceland. He could have had a museum with all of his clothes and his his fancy cars and his possessions for people to enjoy for years and years to come. But because of Dee this would never happen.😢
Nobody forgot Conway
Sorry the kids had to go thru all this!
CONWAY TWITTY IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE COUNTRY SINGER❤ MAKE BELEIVE ❤
R.I.P. CONWAY TWITTY🙏❤🙏
Sounds like Conway was Smitten with Dee. I’m sure he would have left her something in his will if he had remembered to do so.
He did, the property. She was greedy and cold.
He could have just purchased a home outside of the property across town, done it privately, and given that to her instead. Didn't deserve to have the part where all the family lived. I must say, that was on him. But a Decent human being would not kick out their spouses children not to mention his mom!!! 😢
Wow unreal...so rude..taking all that from his kids
I agree with all of the posters. It is a shame when this happens. I know this happened when my grandparents died. My parents and their siblings did not get anything from their parents. Both of them had step-parents. Of course, they were not rich like Conway. But, definitely not hurting.
15 years of fighting when they all of squash the beef and settled in one year and enjoy there fathers n husband success and music.
Thank goodness finally. I love Conway music
What a shame his children should have came frist .not some gold digger..R.I.p Conway miss your music
