Dolly Parton, actress and legendary singer, songwriter, and country music icon, has died at the age of 80.
In a statement on Dolly Parton’s Instagram account, her nephew Brian Seaver, son of Cassie Parton, announced her passing.
While the official cause of death has not yet been revealed,
“My name is Bryan Seaver, son of Cassie Parton, and today I represent the Parton and Owens families to announce the passing of my aunt, Dolly Rebecca Parton Dean, sister and grandmother to one generation and Gigi to the next,” “This video announcement is something Dolly asked me to do years ago, before I fully processed it as a future reality.” As her head of security for more than two decades—a position my father, Larry, held before me—I had imagined the gravity of this moment, but I hadn’t truly felt it until now. “It is an honor, an honor mixed with absolute pride and profound sadness. But the sadness is ours, not Dolly’s. Dolly lived in the light and is in the arms of Jesus, where she will surely be welcomed by Carl, her parents, and countless others who admired her and longed to meet her in heaven.” “As a child, I toured with Dolly for the first time, experiencing life on the road in the early 1980s. Dolly opened doors not only for me but for her entire family, allowing us to reach a potential we didn’t even think was possible. Dolly also opened doors for generations of singers, songwriters, musicians, and dreamers from all walks of life and every continent,”
