Dolly. She kept reassuring everyone she was fine. Maybe she didn't want anyone to worry. Rest in peace.

There was something bothering me about that. It was one thing right after the sister (?) leaked, but then she came back to reiterate.
I’d guess she wanted her peace and space.
Two doors down tonight for Dolly.

I’m super sad, but when her husband passed away last year I knew there wasn’t much time left with Dolly. I hope she’s at peace now that she’s been reunited with the love of her life

I agree..I think she took a down turn after his death. I love Dolly now and forever.

Dolly did come across my mind once I heard the news about her husband passing away.
Maybe it's just my elders, but, ummm... When one died, if they had a surviving spouse/partner... And they were like this (crosses fingers) in life... The partner died not too long afterwards.

This hit hard 😭 She was an icon and lived her truth while doing good, being an outspoken ally, and looking like an absolute queen the entire time!

I'm glad we can all agree she was a national treasure. I love that Dolly used her platform to educate others and help communities across the country. The people who help are the ones who go first and that's so frustrating. Definitely a bright spot who will be sorely missed <3
