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.

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:

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
