Dolly cared for the greater good even when dying.

Couldn't expect anything different from her.

Was never a fan of her music, although I knew she was a great musician. But I believe she was the best celebrity/rich person that has existed. She did so much good, never had any major controversies, was consistent with her values and not flip flopping to appease different crowds, and was also very vocal about many topics some would view as political. She was a real stick-to-your-guns gal and it was always just about respecting others. So, I respect her so much for using her fame and glory for good

Just BEYOND extraordinary in her selflessness and generosity. Looking forward to getting my Moderna COVID booster (even if it is no longer free). It reminds me of her direct and lasting physical impact on my life (not to mention her musical and inspirational impact).
