… from the NY State DOT. These alternating signs are appearing on highways statewide.

Dolly was a very well known, beloved cultural icon and national treasure whose incredible music career and lifelong generosity have earned her widespread praise…

Ted Nugent even honored her legacy in interviews and on social media… He praised her as a hardworking entrepreneur, musical authority, and a profound positive force who transcended her legendary seven-decade career…

RIP Dolly…

This is an old video from 1980 of them together…
