One of the greatest people and songwriters. And she had to put up with up a lot of shit from a lot of idiots, and she could always make fools of them.

Also, Dollywood is one of the best theme parks I’ve ever been too.

Not often I get emotional, but boy did we lose a good one today. She gave back so much, and taught us all to never stop loving who we are, and to never doubt what we’re capable of. Just an all around beautiful person, with a gigantic heart. Feels like I lost a beloved aunt today.
My two favorites from her.

And of course…

My Big Mama loved her some Dolly. Ms Thang as she would call her. Dolly was an ally before it was a thing. She didn’t do it to clout chase or virtue signal. She was just—Dope. Original Baddie. Very loved, appreciated and will be greatly missed.

RIP Ms Thang! :pray:t4:

Was looking for a song to grieve with and found this too! just wow

I’m sure I’m not the only one who lives in the Smokies on this forum (im on the NC side) but just so y’all know its heavy around here today and we all have so many emotions and broken things from hurricane Helene’s tradegy that its going to be a tough month leading up to the anniversary of that.

Dolly was to these mountains what maybe Bob Marley was to Jamaica, there’s no other comparison I can think of

Is this in Asheville by any chance?

Yep, West Asheville to be exact

I’ll pass this on to my wife who’s a local too; she is very upset by the news so will be glad to see this (edit: she already has elsewhere, but it’s still heartwarming).

That was beautiful. Dolly was such a sweet, kind spirit. I’m sad to see her go. We really need more like her right now😢
