In a shocking and devastating turn of events, gospel music legend Gloria Gaither, wife of renowned singer-songwriter Bill Gaither, collapsed in a church during a service this morning. According to eyewitnesses, the 81-year-old gospel music icon fell ill suddenly while worshiping with her congregation at the Allen Arena in Allen, Tennessee.
Emergency responders were quickly summoned to the scene, and Gloria was rushed to the nearby Williamson Medical Center for immediate medical attention. The cause of her collapse is still unknown, but sources close to the family indicate that she was experiencing severe chest pains and difficulty breathing.
Bill Gaither, who was singing alongside his wife during the service, was visibly shaken by the sudden turn of events. The couple has been married for over 60 years and has been a staple in the Christian music industry for decades, known for their iconic songs and heartwarming harmonies.
