Dolly Parton has died

[Wishimaywishimight]

So sad to hear this 😪

Such a bright star gone. RIP Dolly,

So sad. Love Dolly 💖

Her Imagination Library website is again accepting donations, it's very easy to do.
My littlest has one of her books, and adores it.

A life well lived, a legacy left behind. She was on of the Greats.

I’m going to re-watch the documentary about The Trio (Dolly, Linda Ronstadt and Emmy-Lou Harris). Their voices woven together were divine and such a joy to see the three hugely talented women’s mutual respect and affection.

I love this take off of Jolene, and I bet Dolly did too.

RiP Dolly. Hell of a woman.

I enjoyed all the tributes on TV last night.

Dolly was unique.
I should be happy for her incredible life.
Instead I feel horribly sad at her passing.
RIP Dolly.

I think we should all be grateful for the amazing talented hard working individual that Dolly was.

Dolly has definitely left this world a sadder place, but her music will live on.

I'm glad she was doing what she loved making music right to the end.

I saw her s few years back she was amazing.
I still laugh at the Radio presenters joking in the morning where did Dolly sleep last night, each guessing Glasgow poshest hotels. Nope the SEC carpark in a campervan.

Aww she was a lovely lady x

It was on the news yesterday

She never had children, but she did so much for children with her literacy programme.

Heartbreaking; I think because she looked so young we all forget was actually an 80 year old lady; very well preserved externally but internally she had the organs etc of a woman of 80years old; & at that age sometimes illnesses go undetected until it’s too late; although I did read she suffered dreadfully from reoccurring kidney stones which I know from personal experience are agonisingly painful. She was tiny but she was mighty & living proof not all hero’s wear capes; she did so much for disadvantaged people & for children; she never forgot her humble beginnings & was never embarrassed by them which is pretty unique these days most people would want to forget they were born & brought up in what amounts to little more than a shed but it was filled with love xx

I was feeling sad about Dolly today but then also a lot of joy, she truly was an example of a life well lived, she gave it all she had and then some.

So sad I loved Dolly. My daughters hamster was named after her.

Dolly the sheep 🐑 was also named after her.

Dolly was a complete ray of sunshine. I have cried over her passing. I often use the shampoo Vosene and always sing it out loud to the Jolene tune as, "Vosene, Vosene"

The mayor of Rotherham wrote her a letter in 2007 asking her to bring her literacy programme to his town, and she did - amazing, generous woman obliging the request from a little town in the UK and coming over especially. My MIL used to collect jumble for a charity, and a lot of Dolly’s books ended up being donated, which I was always surprised by. If my child had received one, I’d have cherished it and saved it for my grandchildren.

Sad news❤️❤️😭

I feel privileged to have been able to see her in concert once.

She was amazing! Kind, generous, compassionate, sense of humor, NICE and just a wonderful person. If everyone in the world had a quarter of her traits, this would be quite a good world to live in.

Dolly, Emmylou Harris and Linda Rondstadt did 2 albums where they sing together in harmony.
Their voices joining together so melodically 🩷
One track, “To Know Him is to Love Him” is sublime
Please give it a listen.
Rest in peace lovely Dolly. ⭐️

She’s the very first celebrity that I’ve actually shed a tear over.

I want to know who gave the order for that, is King Charles a secret Dolly fan? 🤩

I think it was Camilla.
