Just last night I saw a blurb on my phone news feed that she's been planning her own funeral.

I guess she had a good run.

May she rest in peace.

Wow, 90 years old. That's a pretty good run.

I had no idea that she was Crystal Gayle's older sister...

She was an American Icon

Always enjoyable to listen to and she seemed like such a nice woman

Just like Queen Elizabeth there goes another icon that you expected to live forever. I didn't know very much of her music, but I really like Coal Miner's Daughter. RIP Loretta.
