Ted Williams' Estate sues daughter, her husband
Suit rips public criticism of freezing

ORLANDO, Fla. -- The executor of Ted Williams' estate has sued the late Hall of Famer's oldest daughter and her husband, alleging they violated an agreement by repeatedly voicing their opposition to the placement of his body in deep freeze at an Arizona lab.

The lawsuit said Bobby Jo and Mark Ferrell have continued to publicize their objections through public statements, despite the daughter's agreeing in late 2002 to drop her opposition to the decision by her siblings John Henry Williams and Claudia Williams to send the body to the Alcor Life Extension Foundation.


The lawsuit filed Monday by executor Albert Cassidy in Citrus County state court, about 60 miles northwest of Orlando, seeks an injunction stopping Bobby Jo Ferrell from publicizing her objections, dismissal of a lawsuit she filed against Alcor and unspecified damages.


"Bobby Jo Ferrell's actions are wrongful, in bad faith ...," the lawsuit said. It also seeks to have Mark Ferrell stop speaking on his wife's behalf against keeping her father's body frozen.

that he's now resting in China. Oh that's right..he's in the fridge.
