Noooooooo!!!! Truly one of the best ever! One of the few 'superstars' whose legacy is that more than anything, they were a good person. Elite songwriter too. RIP. Loved her.
A sad day for the music world and the world in general.

God bless her. A lovely woman, nobody nicer, zero pretense, a truly giving soul. The world is a much lesser place for her leaving.
Siskel and Ebert were doing a an interview and were asked who their favorite interviewee was. “Dolly Parton.” “Dolly Parton.” A universally beloved figure.

A true talent and entrepreneur.
Great entertainer and good person.
RIP

Would watch Casey Rose Wilson as Dolly in a movie. This is so good.
Just terrible news. She came from nothing and spent her life making other's lives immeasurably better.
One of those people who seemed like they'd never die. She was always performing and had the energy and personality of someone half her age.
Back in 2021, my nephew's travel baseball team played in a tournament in Pigeon Forge, TN, which is where Dollywood is. I went with my brother, sister-in-law and niece and was blown away by what a great area that is for a vacation, and that's largely attributable to Dolly Parton putting that amusement park there.

This is the letter kids got at the end of Dolly’s Imagination Library. I defy you to read this and not cry.

Anyone who didn't love Dolly has something missing in being human.

Damn you Dolly....and you too Jim! 2026 can f*** right off.
She made a big positive impact on this place. R.I.P., Dolly.
Meanwhile, Keith and Iggy just look at each other and shrug.

A true adult among so many of us children. RIP Dolly
Miley Cyrus is Dolly’s Goddaughter.
She had such a great sense of self and humor. God Bless her and also the late great Johnny Carson.
She had a wicked sense of humor
Dolly Parton Says She Doesn't Want to Run for President: 'We've Had Enough Boobs in the White House'
The tributes pouring in are crazy. Unbelievable woman.
A grande dame of American pop music and country. Very very sad news.
Pretty much it. Some people talk about being Christian, even boast about it....and then you have people that actually live and walk it via actions. Such a gracious and charitable human. A true legend....RIP.
I can't remember ever being this saddened by the passing of a non-relative. I was driving when I heard and had to pull over to wipe my eyes. She was truly special.
What a shame. What talent and what a generous person. She will be missed by her community and millions of fans.
RIP. 9 to 5

It doesn’t get any better than this………
We were talking about this at work earlier today and a coworker didn’t understand the love for Dolly. She even said that Whitney Houston’s version of the song was way better.
Every other person in the group immediately chastised her and walked away.
One of the greatest things Dolly ever did was her free books for kids idea. Both of my children got books every month from her when they were young.
