Loretta Lynn Returns Home After Surgery, Asks Ray Price to Fill In for Canceled Show

Loretta Lynn is recovering nicely after having knee surgery last week. According to the singer's official Facebook page, Lynn's operation went as well as expected. "She is back home at her Ranch in Hurricane Mills. Loretta would like to thank all those who have added her to their prayers. She is looking forward to a speedy recovery and seeing y’all soon!" the singer's admin team posted on Monday morning.

Lynn's surgery has forced the legend to cancel a handful of shows while she recovers, one of which was set to take place at her ranch on September 3. Rather than canceling the performance completely, Lynn has asked Ray Price to fill in for her that night.

"I love Ray so much," Lynn says in a statement. "I am very proud to have him play at my ranch for me. He has had more number one hits then all of us put together. I know my fans are going to love him, and they are in for one heck of a show!"

For fans with tickets for the September 3 show, the ticket will allow entrance into the highly-anticipated performance by Price. For more information on Lynn, her Ranch and future performances, visit her official website here.
