‘Rest in Peace Dolly. There will never be another’

THE sad news of the passing of the great Dolly Parton has been met with an outpouring of love and appreciation that she so richly deserves.

Born in to dirt-poor poverty, she took her talent, along with southern girt and determination, and conquered country music at a time when it was male dominated.

Dolly had the ability to make fun of herself, not take herself seriously which made the public love her all the more.

Her music is iconic and based over a career spanning 60 years. Her husband always by her side.

Along with her music and being as smart as a whip, her wealth was dedicated to helping children who needed educational support.

One of the best people this world has ever produced.

Rest in Peace Dolly. There will never be another.
