Beautiful on the inside and well as the outside. Talented, funny, and irrepressibly hopeful. Her innate graciousness, humility, and honesty, make Dolly one of those who will be remembered by those who loved and admired her. She is an American treasure, and we were lucky to have her with us. She always made me smile, and that is what I will take with me when I think of Dolly Parton.
One of the very few remarkable human beings to grace our planet. There was a magic and magnetism about Dolly Parton that effortlessly came across to people and made them feel like they knew her personally. It is beyond comprehension that she is no longer alive. Dolly will always be alive and, if anyone is, she is the very best of America. May she rest in peace.
The video clip is the best way to bring her to us so we can appreciate who she was. So charming and real. Thank you to Dolly Parton.
I have wondered why the tech oligarchs don’t give back to make the world a better place, as the enormously rich, like the Carnegies and Rockefellers, once did, and as Dolly Parton did.
She apparently asked for donations to be made to the Imagination Library, so I sent one. I'm happy to hear that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were so generous to that organization. My grandson used to look forward to those books every month.
I won’t forget the songs she sang when I was a child. Both of my nieces were drawn to her. She had a way of charming kids in a good way. She lived in Nashville in the Brentwood area near Reba McIntyre and other Nashville stars. She was very popular well liked and will be sorely missed. 🦋
So much good one person can achieve. She definitely was a blessing upon the human race. I also loved that she "typically made fun of herself rather than others".
47 does tend to make negative, ugly remarks about anyone whose publicity outdoes his; especially any person whose publicity is about their "good works"; about which he has no clue, never done that kind of act in his flawed life.
Imagine the ripple effects of all the good she has done in the world. It is truly astounding.
Meredith, this eulogy of Dolly is even better than the one you wrote yesterday. Thank you.

Such grace wit and presence

Thanks for writing about this. She was much more than just big hair and music.

Dolly is a hero, a saint, a role model, a patriot, and a Christian. RIP, Dolly.

"Parton was... so untouchable that not even Donald Trump had a bad word to say about her."
Yet.

A truely great person !
Admirable, tanto o mas que sus canciones. Un beso.
Actually she didn't die. l her physical body died, her body of work lives on. I am sorry the US government prohibits the cloning humans,
