Williams’ kin no longer pursuing removing remains

The fight is over for Bobby-Jo and Mark Ferrell. The daughter and son-in-law of Ted Williams told Florida Today late Tuesday night that they will no longer attempt in any way to get the baseball great’s remains out of an Arizona cryonics facility.

The couple signed a legal settlement earlier Tuesday. In those documents, obtained by Florida Today, the two agreed to no longer pursue getting Williams’ remains removed from the Alcor Life Extension Foundation in Scottsdale, Ariz. They both also agreed to no longer object in any form or fashion, or even go so far as to encourage others to object, to Williams’ remains being cryonically preserved.

The Ferrells agreed to the settlement only after Ted Williams’ estate brought litigation against them May 10.
