Foreman of Loretta Lynn's Tennessee ranch killed in flood - Fox News

The foreman at the Tennessee ranch of country legend Loretta Lynn was among at least 22 people who died in the raging floods that devastated part of the state on Saturday.

The ranch in Hurricane Mills announced the death of Wayne Spears in a Sunday Facebook post — which was subsequently shared by the 89-year-old country singer.

"There are no words at the ranch today…only tears," Lynn wrote in her own Facebook post.

Spears was checking animals in the barn when he was swept away by the violent flash flood, Humphreys County Sheriff Chris Davis told USA Today.
