🦋💗 The City of Townsend joins in mourning our neighbor born and raised just over the mountain in Sevier County.

Whether she was writing classics like "Jolene" and "I Will Always Love You," starring on the big screen, or giving millions of books to children through her Imagination Library, she lived her life with generosity, humility, and infectious joy.

Rest in peace, Dolly. Thank you for the music, the love, and the mountain spirit. You will always be loved. 💗🦋
