LORETTA LYNN LIFE AND TIMES

[@travisphillips1597]

I miss her. You are an inspiration

[@florencecavenaile3589]

Loretta Lynn was great singer and great mother. Plus she was very nice person.

[@colleenvozella4401]

I get goosebumps when I hear Loretta Lynn sing, her voice goes right to my soul. I love how she remained humble throughout all the fame and it must have taken a lot of strength to stay with Doo and that's a special magic. I also loved the movie with Sissy Spaceck and Tommy Lee. Thanks for the memories ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

Loretta Lynn and her whole family are great people. Her sister Peggy sue wright and Crystal Gayle very good people. I love them too death .

[@patriciaferrell9418]

Sure do miss you Miss Loretta Lynn

[@carolynstrozier3179]

She had an all around beautiful family 😻😁. Here parents raised their kid's with respect, and love. The song the Judd's recorded love can build a bridge 🌉🌉✨ is what Loretta Lynn family was, and is. I wish her dad could have lived long enough to see his Queen 👑👑 of country music become a legend, and I know he would be proud of his daughter Loretta Lynn, and his other kid's. RIP the Lynn family, and the Webb family may you all rest in peace ✌️🕊️🕊️✌️.

in the late 60's and 70's my mom sang country music at bars and clubs through NY and PA and she idolized Tammy Wynette and Loretta Lynn but Tammy was her favorite singer and she even dyed and wore her hair like Tammy. my mom was performing at a club with her 2nd husband Art when Tammy stopped in with her people and as soon as my mom heard she was in the club she changed her set to perform one of Tammy's songs and Tammy was so impressed she stood up and clapped when she was done and Tammy encouraged her to follow her dream in country music but 4 failed marriages and 7 kids later my mom allowed her dream to die because she was working 2 jobs to support all of us kids with no help from our fathers. the memory of Tammy was one that my mom talked about almost everyday of her life, she actually met my dad while performing at a bar with her then husband and her friend even took a picture that night of the 3 of them on stage performing. my dad was there to perform with his buddy but the guy got too drunk so the manager asked my mom and her husband if they'd perform with my dad Mike and that's how they met, a short time later my mom divorced her husband Art (who had beat and raped her but back in the early 70's there was no such thing as a husband raping his wife) i grew up listening to my mom sing Tammy, Loretta and Patsy's songs, she would sing to all of us kids and she even played some rock n' roll and soul music so we grew up with a diversity of music in our lives. i lost my mom in 2012 but whenever i see videos like this it reminds me of how cool and awesome my mom was and i can say without a doubt that if i would've met her when she was my age it would've been really something to hang out with her and see her perform. i love you Mom.

[@kellyshomemadekitchen]

Aww, thanks for sharing your story, it truly melted my heart. I pray your dear mama is resting in heavenly peace. 💜✝️💜

[@realcanadiangirl64]

What a great story. Thanks for sharing

[@MH-wm6df]

What?

[@rachaeldavis3825]

Your story sounds familiar. I’ve lived on the NY/PA border my entire life. Your Mom wasn’t “Linda Lee” was she? She was from a tiny village on the NYS side of the border of NYS and PA, and was very popular in the area, hosting/opening for many major Nashville stars at the “CB Jamboree” and the county fairs on both sides of the border and “The Woodshed” in Tioga County, PA. I know Tammy Wynette was in there at least once, as were Charlie Rich and Tommy Cash, Johnny’s brother. Used to spot Tanya Tucker in the area occasionally back when she dated Geoff Bodine, one of the Bodine brothers hailing from the tiny town of Chemung, NY, and of NASCAR fame. A few years ago I saw Loretta’s granddaughter Tayla at the Tioga County, PA Fair with Conway Twitty’s grandson. Their show is, “Twitty - Lynn” and they sing all of their grandparents hits. Some of the best music used to be found at dive bars, Jamborees and County Fairs. Thanks for the stroll down Memory Lane.

[@jinkyscooby1973]

I just love her life story so much. Many inaccuracies concerning dates in her life in early interviews and documentaries were prevalent, which probably was because Loretta didn’t want people to know her age back then. In recent decades more accurate details about her age and the events in her life have been revealed. I have been so interested in her as a person and her life ever since I watched Coal Miner’s Daughter in the mid 1980s as a teenager.

[@mrsx7944]

That's not true. She embellished for the sake of the book. To make the story more dramatic. She knew she married at 15 .

[@diannereynolds383]

I went to see her in May, 1996, She came to Spartanburg,S.C. Spartanburg Memorial Auditorium. Peggy and Patsy open for her. She was so sick about mid way through the concert she had to sit down. Peggy and patsy worked the concession stand selling her shirt’s. I got a Black Shirt With Loretta wearing a blue shirt on the front. Her bus broke down on the way there. So they had to put her on another bus which didn’t help her to feel much better. Then by the time they got here it had started raining. So they had to put her hair up. She didn’t act sick or aggravated by having to leave her bus. One of the twin’s said mama knows her bus as good as she does her home. So thank you Peggy and Patsy for helping your mom and autographed my tickets. ❤😊

[@diannereynolds383]

It was in May 2006 not 1996. I don’t know what I was thinking about. 🥰 Lol 😂

[@diannereynolds383]

It was in May 2006 when she came to Spartanburg,S. C.

[@marywest6844]

Her father was very handsome. Good genes.

[@BrendaBooher-hw4mf]

Loretta was a true trailblazer and she was such a kind and good person. She wasn't afraid to sing honky tonk songs and true life. That's what made her different and made everyone love her.

[@darlaterry5666]

It's uncanny how much sissy and Loretta look like each other Loretta is legend ❤❤

[@BrendaBooher-hw4mf]

Loretta paved the way for so many country women artists to come. Rest in peace Coal Miners Daughter.

[@lisadeav73]

I remember when my mother used to do her hair like Loretta

MAJESTIC

[@pr.tobiastahvanainen9234]

Oh, Loratta... I'm lost for words. I have loved her and Dolly my whole life. And I'd sure like to meet them both. But I'm afraid I won't make it to Tennessee in time to meet Loretta. I'm going next year. Oh, God only knows. I hope Loretta will make it 'till 100 and still be in her right mind. And I wish nothin less for the love of my life, Dolly Parton!!

[@aurelethibeault9977]

Times have certainly changed. A grown man trying to mess with an 11-13 year old now would find himself sitting in prison where he should be. I couldn't even imagine handing my 13 year old daughter off to a grown man to marry 🤢

@@sissyalexander7001 Loretta Lynn - Biography - IMDb www.imdb.com/name/nm0528750/bio She was actually almost 16 at the time of her marriage, not 13 as she told the world. The discrepancy is significant because it completely alters the narrative

[@TheFBombMom]

I stand corrected thank you. Further reading shows where the discrepancy comes in

It's actually pronounced Hollow, but Appalachian dialect pronounces it as Holler

Lorettas father was very handsome when he was young. I think its where Crystal Gayle gets her looks. Depression era Americana was interesting. Rough times, but still interesting.

​@@MH-wm6dfPlenty of them do. They just don't get married anymore; they get welfare.

[@susanlloyd3515]

😮 What he did to her is molestation. Marrying her didn't change that. I'm glad that as a society, we've come a long way in trying to protect minors.

@ yes. Giving a child to a man for marriage at 14 should never be allowed . We have to protect our children
