Dolly Parton On Nashville Tornado: ‘We Are All With You’

Author Nancy Brooks // Country Writer, Beasley Media Group

Dolly Parton took to Instagram this morning to post a video of her reaction to Nashville’s devastating tornado last night that destroyed parts of the city and took eight lives.

Dolly said in part, “I know a lot of Nashville was just devastated with the storms and I just wanted you all to know that we are all with you and hope that you’re family’s all okay and that you property is gonna get mended pretty soon and we love you and we’re with you.”

She posted to Instagram along with a video, “Praying for all those affected by the devastating storms in Tennessee and my heart is especially with the families who lost loved ones ❤️ We are all with you.”

Parton came to the rescue when in 2016 when fires devastated her home region of Gatlinburg, Tennessee holding a telethon and raising millions for families affected. She also donated a quarter of a million dollars to the city of Nashville in 2010 after the floods.
