Ted Williams Cryonics Tale Divides Family And Raises Ethics
Former baseball great Ted Williams lies in liquid nitrogen at Alcor in Scottsdale as a dispute over his final wishes unfolds. His children Claudia and John Henry allegedly signed posthumous life extension contracts. Bobby-Jo opposes the plan, seeking cremation per a 1996 will and 1991 letter. A partial October settlement ends disputes over DNA, but $111,000 remains unpaid and the remains face potential auction.
