Talk Morgan Forums Thread Like Summary - Goodbye Dolly

RIP Dolly Parton

Not just her amazing professional career but her philanthropic work was also incredible an all round talented good person who will be sadly missed.

Her gifts of millions of books and huge donation to the Covid vaccine research team make her such a stand out kind person in this world of dull celebrities

Astonishing to think that she wrote I Will Always Love You and Jolene on the same day! Amazing woman. RIP

Loved her version of the House of the Rising Sun from the 9 to 5 album. It has a nice rock feel to it. She had such a huge variety of music

I have an interesting Dolly story. Years ago my wife worked with an American lady who moved here with her brother and father. Her brother was a carpenter, very good at his work but having trouble getting work mainly due to annoying the Aussie builders he would work with. We got him to build our Kitchen and our builder was getting annoyed with delays so dad came along to help, I got on very well with dad and we talked music seeing I played guitar in bands (still do). Anyway I found out that before he retired and moved to Australia he was a tailor and hired as Dolly's personal Bra maker. He would not say anything about what size she is apart from she needed custom made and she liked the bras he made.

So you could say my kitchen has been touched by the same hands that touched Dolly's Bra.

A sad loss to the world as she was such a genuine talented person that gave so much back. R.I.P
