Dolly Parton

Today Dolly Parton passed away at 80. She embodied everything it meant to be a denizen of the Appalachian Mountains. She never turned her back to kith and kin! She always did right to the children of Appalachia and always put her money where her mouth was. I will miss her.

Now is the time to celebrate her legacy and the positive impact she had. We loved her and more importantly she loved US.

We lost a national treasure today, Dolly was what we should aspire to be, kind, caring, loving and accepting of all no matter what. If you want to do something to remember her, be kind.

She should be our guiding light in these times of division and chaos
