And, as Alan Jackson sang the final verse, he removed his white cowboy hat and held it over his heart.
“We love you George,” he said.
Then, George Jones exited the Opry for the final time.
As his casket was taken up the center aisle, “When the Last Curtain Falls” played. People in the pews removed their hats as he passed. The thousands of fans in the balcony stood in respect. And the hush that hung in the hall before the service started, again resumed.
12:35 - Regardless of how the people gathered in the Grand Ole Opry House Thursday knew George Jones – whether it was as a husband, daddy, grandpa, friend or the greatest voice they had ever heard – Pastor Mike Wilson had this to say: “Life didn’t stop for George on Friday, it started.”
It’s OK to cry, Wilson said. Jesus cried.
But Jones’ memory will carry on.
When Wilson asked Jones’ widow, Nancy, what he should share about Jones at Thursday’s funeral, she looked at him with piercing eyes and said, “You tell everybody he was the best man they’ll ever know.”
12:20 - In her deep and commanding voice, Wynonna Judd captured love of the country music legend with a moving rendition of “How Great Thou Art. The song reverberated through the pews and caused those gathered in the Grand Ole Opry House to stand and applaud.
“Music gets us through, and in some ways helps lighten the burden,” Wynonna said before she.

George Jones performed hundreds of times at Nashville's Grand Ole Opry House – whether on the WSM Radio show, or appearing on such shows from the auditorium like the CMA Awards, so it's only appropriate that this morning's funeral has turned out to be a farewell fit for a country king.
Open to the public, fans started lining up yesterday for a chance to say farewell to the artist known as 'The Possum.' Famous friends who either spoke or performed during the 2 hour, 40 minutes-long service included Kid Rock, Travis Tritt, Alan Jackson, Patty Loveless, former First Lady Laura Bush and others.
WSM announcer Eddie Stubbs welcomed the crowd to the Opry House, and proceeded to introduce longtime family friend Tanya Tucker and the Imperials, who performed a beautiful version of the Gospel classic 'The Old Rugged Cross,' ending the performance by saying 'I'm gonna miss you, Possum.' Tucker was one of several acts that was slated to perform with Jones on his final concert – which was slated for November 22 in Nashville.
Nashville radio personality Keith Bilbrey spoke next, followed by Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam who praised the singer for being an ambassador to the state of Tennessee.
Pastor Mike Wilson was next on the hallowed stage, who asked for prayers on behalf of George's family and friends. Bilbrey then introduced a pair of artists who had deep ties to Jones. The first was Randy Tr

Thursday's funeral revealed stories beyond the legends about the man Vince Gill says 'taught us all how to sing with a broken heart.'
The friends and fellow performers who spoke at George Jones' funeral repeated many of the well-known stories about the country singer's life. He once drove a mile and a half to a liquor store on a riding lawn mower. After years of battling alcohol and drug abuse, he finally turned around his life after a near-fatal 1999 auto accident. He could sing a country song like no one else who ever lived.
'He was more than a country singer, he was a country song,' said Face the Nation moderator Bob Schieffer, one of eight speakers at the funeral. 'And it was never an easy one.'
Thursday's service, which drew thousands of family, friends and fans to the Grand Ole Opry House, also revealed lesser-known stories about the man whom Charlie Daniels called 'the most imitated country singer of all time.' Some of the best takeaways:
Jones never got over being nervous on the Grand Ole Opry stage, especially those times when he was introduced by the late Roy Acuff.
Jones almost turned down his signature hit, He Stopped Loving Her Today, feeling that it was too sad.
Jones loved Raisin Bran but hated raisins. His wife, Nancy, would pick them out of his cereal for him.
Jones would get in his car and drive around town when he felt like he

For a guy who sang so many sad songs, George Jones left behind a lot of laughs.
There was more humor than sadness at Jones's funeral Thursday at the Grand Ole Opry House as thousands gathered in Nashville – some arriving hours before sunrise –to pay their respects to the man whose voice has defined country music for more than half a century.
Friend after friend related stories of Jones' kindness, his love for his widow, Nancy, who's credited with helping him survive his personal demons later in life, and the funny little moments that will stick with them always.
Barbara Mandrell remembered the kindnesses he gave a scared 13-year-old girl just getting her start in the business. Former first lady Laura Bush remembered dumping quarter after quarter into the jukebox to hear 'The Race Is On.' Wynonna Judd remembered his perfect hair and his friendship. And Vince Gill remembered the man who gave him the nickname 'Sweet Pea,' a moniker he wasn't sure he liked at first but now treasures.
'The great thing is every time someone calls me Sweet Pea, I'll get to think about him,' Gill said before earning a standing ovation for his rendition of 'Go Rest High on That Mountain' with Patty Loveless.
The nearly three-hour memorial was attended by several major country stars and political figures. Nancy Jones sat flanked by Bush and Garth Brooks and Trisha Yea
