Dolly Parton has died

She was 80 yrs old. God rest her soul. What a treasure she was.

Just a Great human being all around, but what a song writing career…

Dolly Parton has written over 3,000 songs throughout her career, with some sources estimating her total compositions to be closer to 5,000. While she has recorded hundreds of these tracks herself, approximately 450 of her songs have been recorded by other artists, including hits for Whitney Houston, Kenny Rogers, and Tina Turner. Parton, who has been writing seriously since the age of seven, remains one of the most prolific songwriters in music history, with her work earning her induction into both the Songwriters Hall of Fame and the National Songwriters Hall of Fame.

WOW…

A true legend and a sweetheart. There probably will be no one like her ever again. R.I.P.

She will always be loved and missed. And now she has her wings which she has always had. Now they are visible for the world to see. R.I.P. Dolly you will always be loved!! A true Angel

so sad what a legend she wil be sadly missed country music has lost the greatest

Amazing career. Broke my heart when I heard the news. I never realize how many songs she had written for others intended for others. And she was a philanthropist. She gave millions of dollars in books for preschool and early elementary grandchildren. One of our best has been lost. It’s gonna be interesting. Who shows up at our funeral. I wouldn’t be surprised if President Trump attends.

I was smitten as a youngster with her ‘Talent and Beauty’ I will sorely miss her.

R.I.P.

She was surely an angel upon this earth.

I never listened to her music as I don’t listen to country music but I have always admired her for all of her contributions and donations to those in need such as hurricane victims. My heart goes out to you Dolly :heart: thank you for all your contributions to humanity here in the USA

A very generous and gracious gal indeed. I saw a ton of career highlights on the news last night and learned how incredible she was.

A legend and a wonderful human being!! God bless Dolly :folded_hands:

Saw this beautiful tribute on “X” :backhand_index_pointing_down::backhand_index_pointing_down:

She’s now a true Angel!

OMG @PapaS that is absolutely awesome. Thank you so much for sharing that. It’s beautiful.

@PapaS @Miki PapaS, I agree with Miki that is truly awesome and from everything that has been said about this amazing lady I can actually picture her being greeted and welcomed that way at the Gates

She was asked if she ever lifted weights,her response was (every time i stand up) What a treasure, she never spoke ill of anyone and had a wicked sense of humor. She was one of a kind and will surely be missed

TIL: Dolly was a silent producer for the Buffy movie and series.

Truly one of a kind.

Best quote about Dolly to date: “She was a diamond in a world full of rhinestones!”

WOW! That picture is giving me the chills!!!
