The Alan Jackson superfan who wanted her ashes spread at his home is getting a tribute at his bar instead

While her final resting place may not be quite what she was hoping for, Alan Jackson superfan Mary Ann “Marie” Gallant is still getting a special, posthumous honor from her favorite country superstar.

If you followed last week’s viral story about Mary Ann, the Maine woman who hoped to have her ashes spread over Alan’s property, you know that her daughter, Sue Castle, traveled to Nashville with her ashes in hopes of leaving them at their intended destination.

But the story reached so many people that Alan and his team knew she was coming, according to an update from local publication Sun Journal.

Turns out, Alan remembered Marie, a die-hard fan who attended more than 20 of his shows during her lifetime, got a detailed tattoo of his portrait and even once joined him onstage and briefly danced with him to “Remember When.”

While Marie’s ashes won’t be spending eternity on Alan’s property, she is going to be memorialized at his downtown Nashville hot spot, AJ’s Good Time Bar: A tiny exhibit of her favorite car, a 1965 Mustang, will be on display in her honor.

In addition, Sue’s pilgrimage to Nashville earned her free food for life every time she pops back in to Alan’s Nashville bar. She tells the newspaper she’s planning to scatter Mary’s ashes in her own backyard instead.
