‘Dolly has lived in the light and is in the arms of Jesus,’ the singer’s nephew said.

Supreme Court Restricts Race-Based Redistricting in LouisianaSinger Dolly Parton is dead, her nephew said on Aug. 25.

Parton, who was 80, has died, Bryan Seaver, the nephew, said in a video statement as a representative of Parton’s family.

Parton was a singer, songwriter, philanthropist, and businesswoman. Her hundreds of songs included “Jolene” and “Coat of Many Colors.” She was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2022.

Parton appealed to fans of all kinds, in part because she steered clear of politics. “I don’t do politics,” she said during a 2019 podcast appearance. “I have too many fans on both sides of the fence. Of course, I have my opinion about everything, but I learned years ago to keep your mouth shut about things.”

She was born in 1946 in Pittman Center, Tennessee, and her projects eventually included a theme park near her birthplace.
