Celebration of life scheduled for 7-year-old 'J-Bird' who lost her battle to cancer

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — So many of you have been touched by a little girl from Dover named J-Bird that I wanted to pass along her funeral arrangements for this weekend.

Jessica Hart was one of my hero's I featured nearly two years ago because she was bravely battling cancer with such a positive attitude and love of God and Jesus.

She passed away last week at the age of 7 after losing that battle.

Her celebration of life is set for this Saturday, February 3rd at 11 a.m. at the Stewart County High School gym.

They ask you to wear bright happy colors, especially Tennessee Orange if you plan to attend. They will not be live-streaming the event.

Adventures in Iceland: Tourists credited with saving Iceland after economic collapse

My friend and colleague Carrie Sharp had a lot of fun last week, on an adventure to a country more than three thousand miles away! She’s back now – sharing her Adventures in Iceland through stories, and incredible images of this remarkably beautiful and unique island nation (kudos to Chief Photographer Catherine Steward)! But did you know Nashville has something very important in common with Iceland? Tourism! Here, Carrie explains how a volcanic eruption decades ago helped save the country’s economy from collapse!
