George Jones

These country couples know the meaning of "'til death do us part."

On Sept. 12, 1994, Jones had triple bypass surgery, on his 63rd birthday, at Baptist Hospital in Nashville, Tenn.

Do you agree?

They struck it rich, but they never abandoned their roots.

On Aug. 31, 1974, Jones earned a No. 1 hit with his song "The Grand Tour," which was the title track of his 41st studio album.

Drop a quarter in the jukebox and listen to this lineup.

On July 30, 1983, Jones landed at No. 1 on the charts with "I Always Get Lucky With You."

On July 5, 1980, Jones earned a No. 1 hit with "He Stopped Loving Her Today."

The country music legend lived like a Southern gentleman.

At least one of these separations has a happy ending!
