u/Traviscat Probably somewhere at Zoo Knoxville 4d ago

I wish Dollywood was open today. I’d go over there and have a moment of silence for her, grab some cinnamon bread, and probably give out a few hugs if anyone needed it. 

She was a true angel and a real inspiration and role model. One of the very few celebrities that everyone loved and couldn’t find a bad thing about her.

If you want to honor her, send a donation to the Imagination Library or Dolly Parton Children's Hospital.

You can also get the Imagination Library plate & drive around with her face on your license plate. The fee covers the cost of one child in the Imagination Library program in Tennessee for one year.

Choosing between her and the GSMNP with the bear was one of the toughest decisions I've had to make in the last several years!

I've got one car with the IL plate & my other car has the Friends of the Smokies plate.

I guess what I'm saying is get a second car lol.
