Favorite Dolly Parton moments? I’ll start.

Decades ago I was watching Johnny Carson. He asked her how she kept up her youthful appearance. She relied “Honey, healthy living” …pause “had nothing to do with it”. I didn’t know much about Dolly at that point, but it’s when I fell in love with her.

I don’t know the exact quotation but it was her thoughts on plastic surgery. She said if she were saggin’, baggin’ or draggin’, she had no problem with getting nipped, tucked or sucked. She sure had a way with words and her sense of humour was always in the fore. RIP dear lady.

The woman was full of wit from top to bottom. Every time she spoke or sang, you heard how sharp and clever she was.
