I grew up with her songs, as well as patsy cline, dolly parton, jim reeves, hank williams sr, hank snow, ect. this is real country music, not like today with electric guitars and big drum sets. i wish this was still a thing, but for now i'll stick with listening to it on here til i get myself a record player and some records so i can listen to this at anytime

She never changed a thing throughout the years, despite the glitz and glamour and promotionalism that came to country music. She was a strong woman, family person and a fine example for all. R.I.P.
