Sain äsken huolestuttavan sähköpostiuutisen: FERLIN HUSKY on vakavasti sairaana - sairaalassa. Sydän reistaa ja keuhkokuume heikentää ... _______________________________________________ LAINAUS: Country singer Ferlin Husky has been hospitalized with congestive heart failure and pneumonia, according to his record company. Husky, 83, was in stable condition Sunday after being admitted to St. John's Hospital in Springfield, Mo., on Friday, according to Tracy Pitcox, president of Heart of Texas Records. Pitcox told The Associated Press that Husky had been on tour in Texas as recently as two weeks ago. He said the singer and onetime movie star has homes in Vienna, Mo., and Nashville, Tenn. He says Husky's close friend and touring partner, Leona Williams, is by his bedside. Husky was country music's top entertainer in the early 1960s with hits like "Wings of a Dove" and "Gone." His latest album, released in 2007, is called "The Way It Was," Pitcox said.
