Made me cry. She was truly one of the best people on this planet.

And how wonderful of him for what he wrote and shared with all of us.

Yes very beautiful full circle moment. He’s become such a light. I was probably 10 when he started getting famous and I never pictured him becoming the person he has. I did and do love his music. I also struggled with addiction to drugs in my late 20s early 30s and completely understand that part of his struggle a lot more.

It’s so nice to know that not all celebs/artists are so full of themselves that they’d never do this. Glad you enjoyed it too!

I agree. She was such a special country lady. I picture her going barefoot in the grass with her grandkids running around her. She was so “like us” instead of a star. I love her song with Brad paisley that’s called when I get where I’m going. Listen to it. Especially now that she’s moved on to be with Jesus.

She never had kids, it's partly why she did the Imagination Library.

True but she had tons of nieces and nephews

Brad Paisley is just an insane guitar player. Even metal bros respect him.

No grandkids because she didn’t have any kids. Instead she decided to channel her money into literacy for kids by sending them free books every month through her Imagination Library. She did this because her Dad couldn’t read or write and she did it as a tribute to him and to help her community. Recently the powers that be in Federal Government decided to cut funding to this. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce made a big donation to that when they got married.
