Ray Price is happy to report that his cancer is in remission! The 87-year-old country legend was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer last year, and after six months of chemotherapy is now cancer-free. The "Heartaches by the Number" singer hopes to go back on tour as soon as he completes physical rehabilitation to regain muscle strength. This was Ray's second cancer scare. In 2009, he underwent surgery to remove polyps from his colon. [Examiner]
