George Jones' Funeral Service Will Be Open To The Public - RTTNews - RTT News



A public funeral will be held at the Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville for country legend George Jones, who died late last week at the age of 81.

"George would have wanted his fans and friends to be able to come and pay their respects along with his family," publicist Kirt Webster said in announcing the decision Sunday. Jones had been a member of the Grand Ole Opry since 1956.

In the same release, Jones' widow, Nancy, said, "Thanks to George's friends, fans, and loved ones for the outpouring of love at this terrible time. I love you all."

A private visitation for family, friends and fellow performers will take place Wednesday evening.

Instead of flowers, the family has requested that contributions be made to either the Grand Ole Opry Trust Fund or the Country Music Hall of Fame, to which Jones was inducted in 1992.

Procedure studied that could control blood pressure without medicine - Bloomington Pantagraph

BLOOMINGTON '� High blood pressure, or hypertension, is a condition in which the force of the blood against artery walls is high enough that it could cause health problems. The more blood that is pumped and the narrower the arteries, the higher the blood pressure. High blood pressure can lead to life-threatening complications, including stroke and heart attack, said Dr. Nilesh Goswami, interventional cardiologist with Prairie Cardiovascular Consultants in Springfield. 'This is a very prevalent problem in the United States,' Goswami said. About 30 percent of Americans have high blood pressure and about 10 percent have resistant hypertension, meaning they have high blood pressure that isn't controlled with medicine. For those people, any type of nonmedicine treatment could prove valuable. But non-medicine treatment could be valuable even to people whose high blood pressure may be controlled with multiple medicines because some people don't take their medicin...
