We were shocked but not surprised to learn that the probate court of Titus County, Texas has claimed its next victim – Janie Price, widow of Country Music Hall of Famer Ray Price. Mrs. Price posted this public message on Facebook on Sept 21, 2016:

It is with reluctance and a sad, sad heart that I come to you. As you know, Ray Price and I have always kept our private lives and affairs very private. An event beyond my control has occurred. PERSONAL INFORMATION has been leaked. Our practice has always been to come directly to you, THE RAY PRICE FANS and inform you first.

My COURT BATTLE began when a GUARDIANSHIP LAWSUIT was filed by an unscrupulous lawyer in an attempt to steal everything from Ray and me before Ray died. Without following the legal Rule Of Law, our County Judge Approved and Granted Guardianship. He appointed a Guardian Ad Litem over Ray. This man actually walked into our hospital room with these documents and announced that he was there to remove Ray from the care of his Specialist and me and take him to some undisclosed location. Ray’s medical care would not be under a medical doctor but under a nurse practitioner, also appointed by the Judge. Ray’s wonderful and caring Doctor who was present, told this man that he was in charge of Ray Price’s medical care and NO ONE would be taking Ray anywhere.

This lawsuit was dismissed BUT a new Lawsuit Contesting Ray’s Will was filed by the same HEARTLESS ATTORNEY at 7:58 AM the morning after my Dear Husband passed away! I was thrown into a vicious legal Battle BEFORE I COULD EVEN PLAN RAY’S FUNERAL SERVICE.

On December 16, 2016, it will be 3 years since Ray passed away. I was never given time to grieve the lost of my Dear Husband of almost 45 Years. Until today, I have remained silent and HAVE NOT spoken a word about this in Public. I am only doing so now because of the leaked information. I am devastated to tell you that A Texas Statutory Probate Judge appointed a Receiver over the Entire Janie Price Estate, with power to Take Control Of, Take Possession Of, and The Sale Of ALL ASSETS. He has already removed from my home All Of the Ray Price Master Recording Tapes and Ray’s entire Gun Collection. My attorney is shocked and in disbelief. I have filed an Appeal. However, the Appeal does not stop the Judge’s Order.The Receiver can proceed with the Total Liquidation of my Estate, WITHOUT MY EVER HAVING A TRIAL!.

Ray Price was a Native Born Son Of Texas. He was one of the most beloved Entertainers and County Music Star that has ever lived. Ray spent 65 years of his life building the Music Legacy that he placed entirely in my hands to carry forward. Ray’s last words to me was to promise him I would never let his music die and that I would never, ever forget his Fans!!. Today I am being held hostage in my own home, All Assets Frozen. Now I learn that I am the latest person to fall victim to this same group of Judges, and Attorneys who have encircled many of our defenseless and elderly Widows. They have used the Texas Probate Guardianship and Receivership Laws to rob the entire estates of Both The Deceased Person and The Surviving Widow and Family.

Although I am utterly exhausted, I will not waiver in my determination to continue the fight to preserve The Ray Price Legacy. I will roll up my sleeves even as they are literally destroying me and keep working. I know this is a lengthy post and it must be a shocking story to you since I have always dedicated our Facebook Pages to Ray’s memory and keeping every post uplifting and positive. Everyone I know is like me, in total disbelief and have said, “I’VE NEVER HEARD Of SUCH A THING”. No one can believe this has happened to a Citizen of Texas who left his Estate in proper Legal Order as he wanted it.
Image this !! It has happened to Ray Price and me. Will you and Your Widow be their next victim?. If we all stand together and expose this Illegal Scam, We Can

Make The Whole World Care!!!!!

Thank You All, God Bless And Please Keep Me In Your Prayers.

Janie Price
