Loretta made the world better.
Enjoy your rose garden Loretta, you earned it!
R.I.P.
I remember watching her on TV as a little kid and she always had the frilliest dresses and looked like a country princess.
RIP “Coalminer’s Daughter”
When country music was country
Thoughts and Prayers to the family 🙏❤️🕊️
That is sincerely sad and a loss to the music world, but God has added an incredible voice to His Heavenly choir. May He bless and comfort that family and all those who loved her, and give them Blessed Assurance that absent from the body is present with the Lord.
God Bless,

Class act all the way
A great woman and fantastic singer/writer. As was he role model Patsy. I will miss ’em both now.
Went to he homy in KY. She was a great fan of America’s #1 song writer; and my all time Eastern Hillbilly singer (I am biased; 11th gen Cal on mom’s side so my favs are the Bakersfield boy: Buck, Merle and Merle.) She had all of his albums and several pics of him in her room.
None of the articles I’ve read mention hank.
Probably the same reason many DJ’s would not play his songs sung by him. A man made a giant fortune singing Hank’s songs where the DJ’s would not play Hank, Kids born after 1960 remember him for “I Left my heart in Frisco”. Tony Bennet was a very rich man covering hank before he recorded tht.
Go show them Angels how it’s done Loretta, we will miss you dearly.
Some tears never dry, RIP
Back when singers had class and talent. Now we are left with screeching twerkers.
She was a big supporter of amateur motocross and held events at her ranch yearly.
A real down to earth celebrity.
RIP to a great singer and a real lady.
How can anyone not be a fan of Loretta Lynn? RIP Coal Miners Daughter!
I absolutely admired this woman.
She had to deal with some rough stuff in her life, and she did it with strength and grace.
The Queen of Country.
RIP
Her and Patsy Cline IMHO were/are/is the greatest country western singers ever. Dolly Parton doesn’t hold a candle to those two. Even Loretta’s sister Crystal Gayle, wasn’t a match either. JMHO.
(That would be female country and western singers).
I met Loretta and her husband, Moony, in Waikoloa Hawaii where they had a vacation home. They invited me and my wife (at the time) for a dinner party along with some of her neighbors. They were gracious and genuine and we left feeling as though we made friends. Occasionally I would see her walking through the neighborhood early in the morning and she would always say hello. Godspeed Loretta and thanks for your music and kind heart.
One of my favorite woman country singers. R.I.P. Loretta https://youtu.be/gwlab94OJzQ
No doubt RIP Loretta!
My 2 Cents, I lived about 3 houses away from her place years ago. Paniolo Drive. That was good living back then.
that’s what I love about iotwreport! A bunch of fine folks remembering Loretta and Patsy and sending blessings! BFH you and your choices for relevant news are exceptional. I get paid this weekend. I will praise you with my wallet!
@You Know What I Mean: That’s one of my all-time favorite country hymns. It’s also a saying that I use often: Everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die. Thanks for sharing, I’ll play it for DH tonight.
R.I.P. Loretta Lynn.
I didn’t know her, but attended one of her concerts in the 80’s in Nashville. I also named one of my donkeys after her!
RIP Loretti (could have sworn Doo called her that in the movie).
SHE BROUGHT TO THE WORLD THE VOICE OF THE UNPRIVILEGED YET HARDEST WORKING CLASS
GOD BLESS LORETTA
A Great Lady ! Faithful daughter, wife and mother AND a wonderful singer. Have never been to Butcher Hollow but DO love the people who hail from the place. No doubt that she FLEW with the Angels to heaven!
Rest in peace , Loretta. It will always be a Joy to hear your music 😀
