There have been very few celebrities or artists whose passing has truly hit me and brought me to tears, but hearing today that Dolly is no longer here shining her light is absolutely heartbreaking. 💔
She had a beautiful heart and soul and much more that a country artist on the radio. No matter how famous she became, she never seemed to forget where she came from. She never lost that smile, that kindness, that humor, or that unmistakable Dolly spirit & laugh.
She gave the world her voice, but she also gave us her heart. She made people laugh, gave generously, loved deeply, and brought light wherever she went.
The world feels a little less bright today.
Thank you, Dolly, for the music, the laughter, and for showing the world that you can become larger than life without ever forgetting your roots.
You will forever be in our hearts, and we will always love you. 💗🦋
Rest peacefully, Dolly. 😢
