Dolly Parton Pays Tribute to Late Friend Kenny Rogers: 'I Will Always Love You'

Dolly Parton took to social media on Saturday morning to emotionally pay tribute to her late friend and fellow country star, Kenny Rogers.

"You never know how much you love somebody until they’re gone," Parton captioned a video she posted to social media. "I’ve had so many wonderful years and wonderful times with my friend Kenny, but above all the music and the success I loved him as a wonderful man and a true friend. So you be safe with God and just know that I will always love you, dolly."

In the video, Parton sits at the piano, holding a framed picture of the pair that she displays in her home. "Well, I couldn't believe it when I got up this morning and turned on the TV...and they told me that my friend and singing partner Kenny Rogers had passed away," she says. "I know that we all know that Kenny's in a better place than we are today, but I'm sure that he's gonna be talking to God sometime today, if he ain't already, and he's gonna be asking him to spread some light on a bunch of this darkness going on here."

it's all about him

Pennsylvania votes April 28, unless the election is moved to another date.

Not having one guy refusing to play the game. No more. Five more weeks is not acceptable.

He has two choices: Join the team, or contribute to the demise of the USA.

It is time.

Now, or forever hold his peace

what is the point...he can't catch Joe and is only helping Trump now.

his refusal to concede a race he lost...and where is he...back in Vermont during a crisis pretending someone gives two shits what he has to say at this point.

And Bernie ain't Jason Voorhees!

I look forward to checking the box for Senator Sanders when I vote in Oregon in May. In her endorsement, AOC stated, "He has been fighting for me since before I was born." I'm older than Bernie, so I can't claim that, but he has been fighting for all the things I have championed throughout my life. He will always be a hero to me.

You simply state facts and your opinion, so I hope no small-minded person will feel compelled to alert. True progressives have always had a difficult go of things in the US. I'm old, so I've had a long time to observe that.

Joe’s hometown means nothing to me.

I vote on where a candidate stands on issues that are important to me, past performance, and health, not birthplace.

He’s not even fundraising anymore. He’s using his podium to fight the virus and raise money for that.

As soon as he drops out he loses any media attention.

Quite frankly, I hope Biden is doing the same thing. Biden will be the nominee, although at this point I seriously doubt there will be an election this year.

It's all about himself. He disgusts me. I wouldn't vote for Bernie if he was the only one running for president on either side.

Seems to care to me. And if that’s bow you feel, I think you’re on the wrong site.

How else am I to interpret that? But still you are expecting me to follow that dictum?

nation on it. Put together an advisory team of experts. Gave a press briefing just the other day.
Now talking by phone seven hours a day with governors and mayors throughout the country. Set out an excellent plan (summarized in his speech and outlined at his site). Starting by Monday will act as a shadow to Trump’s leadership, or rather lack of, through media interaction, streaming, events all from his home which has been completely fitted out for.

As fo4 me, I hope Sanders gets out. He gave a round table with musicians. This was after Biden, far more qualified and experienced in pandemic and medical matters than he, took up the global crisis.

However, Bernie did not vote on the Coronavirus supplemental assistance bill.

has a lead in delegates that cannot be overcome

Thank you, Galraedia.. That article is Dead ON!

Time to say goodbye.

And, emotional Thank you!

I was trying to find out who the special guest was singing with Andrea Bocelli? Do you know?

I know who she is, yet can't remember her name. I searched as well.

Sad she was not noted, women never are. Her voice, so beautiful, Cha.

singing with her.. that was the vid I saw. I guess they had a few vids with Andrea there.

That was really amazing with the Italian guy.. did you see that one?

Sarah Brightman was mentioned when I googled but that wasn't the one I saw.

Thank you again!

Thank you! Damn me, I knew that! Forgot her name.

The man was Andrea Botticelli.

The song was so beautiful. You could see the close relationship, the bond they had.

Sarah Brightman! I don't get out much.

Yes they had a brilliant bond singing together.. Wow they're both so good!

I love you...……….

Fact is it would be beautiful if Bernie bowed out as gracefully as that song. It is time say goodbye.

Lyrics

When I am alone I sit and dream
And when I dream the words are missing
Yes I know that in a room so full of light
That all the light is missing
But I don't see you with me, with me
Close up the windows, bring the sun to my room
Through the door you've opened
Close inside of me the light you see
That you met in the darkness
Time to say goodbye
Horizons are never far
Would I have to find them alone
Without true light of my own with you
I will go on ships over seas
That I now know
No, they don't exist anymore
It's time to say goodbye
When you were so far away
I sit alone and dream of the horizon
Then I know that you are here with me, with me
Building bridges over land and sea
Shine a blinding light for you and me
To see, for us to be
Time to say goodbye
Horizons are never far
Would I have to find them alone
Without true light of my own with you
I will go on ships over seas
That I now know
No, they don't exist anymore
It's time to say goodbye
So with you I will go
On ships over seas
That I now know
No, they don't exist anymore
It's time to say goodbye
So with you I will go...
I love you

And for crying again. I love you, too

It looks divisive and self serving. It's time to be a uniter not a divider. Preserve dignity and help his followers to see the way forward to beat fat Nixon.

If he and Mr. Biden are truly "friends" I'd like to see them act like it. As is, I am not convinced.

It makes me sad for Senator Sanders and his followers. They're flirting with disaster. Time to get together and make a contract that leads the way toward victory.

As it stands now, I'm disappointed we're not more dedicated to unity against what is the worst existential threat to our democracy in my lifetime.

He is also fundraising to help those affected by the virus and the situation. I don't call that NOTHING. I call that highly competent and caring, but I guess I see things differently from you.

helping Trump...it makes me sick. No one cares but the minority of Bernie supporters...half of what he had last time...who cares what he says...only words I care about are..."I concede" so we can beat the most dangerous president in history...Sanders supporters need to understand and accept that the primary is over.Sanders has lost.

How is he unifying the country, exactly?

Link me to the fundraising sites and I'll make a donation.

Define "situation."

I never questioned his competence or his ability to be caring.

You words could be used as Exhibit A to provide proof that there's more dividing than uniting going on here.

They are exactly why I find things to be more contentious than arms open wide welcoming.

My Gran used to saying that you can catch more flies with honey than vinegar. Make of that what you will.

Please excuse me if you felt that was what I was doing. You may not have ever questioed his competence or caring, but many have. If you want to see the groups Senator Sanders is helping to raise money for, you can log on to "Our Revolution" and find the listing. He is not trying to divide, but by staying on as a candidate he has a better platform to help with the Covid-19 crisis. His ideas and suggestions are worthwhile.

a race you lost in order to continue to have a 'platform'. His platform was soundly rejected, and now he needs to go away. Sanders is a Senator ...he is hurting our presumptive nominee. He needs to do his job and if he doesn't very soon should be primaryed so Vermont can have a senator that represents them and not some revolution. I see Sanders only won Vermont by 51%. A democratic primary opponent might very well beat him. He can write another book.

voice is attended to throughout America and the world.

Bow out and get behind Biden, Bernie, or be relegated to history as a two time loser and spoiler. Not saying you are that, but history could so construe.

...which BTW, includes ME ... how is running against the Democratic party & repeatedly insulting Democratic voters like me "helping to unify the country"?

I voted for Bernie in the 2016 primary. Back then, I liked him. He had to work hard to drive me away ... & he did it. He did it by running against Democrats & the Democratic party in 2020, as opposed to running against Trump.

I'm truly sad that he chose to do that, but he did. 100% his choice, & now I 100% reject him.

I saw him running against Trump and FOR progressive values which I wholeheartedly support. You are fully entitled to see it however you did and thus reject him.

and businesses."

He needs to end his vanity campaign and get to work in the senate. This should be his senate star turn. They're working on a $2 trillion relief package and he's making videos in his back yard.

Not that I disagree. On the contrary, you are correct. I just don’t care anymore. I think people see the race as it is, which is settled, and don’t really care what Bernie does either.
