Of course, Wynonna Judd was in attendance. She and her Mother Naomi made up the classic country duo ‘The Judds.’ Wynonna performed the River of Time’ hit song to honor her mother.

The song was written by Naomi Judd and John Jarvis. Wynonna even changed the lyrics to bring more honor to her relationship with her mother. It is a touching tribute to a country legend and beloved mother.
