God’s Gift 🎁 :

Perfect example of how marriage should be. together but separate goals with individual identity working for the good for the your family.

Marc Banks560 :

God works in mysterious ways. If Dolly had married someone else, we might not know the Dolly Parton we know today. Carl Dean allowed her to be the best version of herself. I’m not sad because I’m sure that when he got to heaven, God said, “Well done, my good and faithful servant.
