The only person who could actually bring people together and showed everyone what a real Christian should be. As a young person from East Tennessee who grew up to be an atheist, I respected the Hell out of her. RIP Dolly 💗🦋

Oh Robert! Your gift of clarity in such a sad time, brings grace to the ones who served. Dolly served everyone she met, touched with a song, or just spreading joy throughout the world. These words cause us to remember there once was a person who life choices made others lives better. Thank you.

Mr. Arnold, I have enjoyed your orations in the same way I enjoy cool, mountain air. They are simple but profound, necessary while unobtrusively pushing us towards the right choices. This was one of your best!

There’s a young lady on Threads who has been making little colorful beaded bracelets with WWDD (What Would Dolly Do) on them & sending them to anyone who wants them, free of charge. She said it’s just something people can wear as reminder to be more like her in their everyday lives. “Goodness is a choice.” We definitely need to choose more goodness.

Dolly Parton was an exemplary role model. While people are rightfully honoring all that she was and all the good she did, your point that we must emulate her goodness, not just gawk at it, is the best way to actually honor her legacy. Well said, as always!

You are the modern day Maya Angelou. I save your videos- hopefully to transcribe them someday- I want them safe for my grand daughter. I want her to know that people fought for her future and all of our kids and grandkids future. Thank you 💙💙💙💙
