I read a quote yesterday that seems to sum up how we are feeling..
"It never occurred to me that Dolly could ever die".
Obviously after 63 years I've seen plenty of celebrities and important people pass.
Never have I seen such a collective feeling of sadness for a loss coupled with mutual admiration for a life well lived serving others. Her joy was infectious.

I said the same. Many fabulous people have been and gone, but the sorrow that Dolly's passing has generated... I can only think of Princess Diana's death in recent history as having such an impact on the public.
I listened to a phone in on the radio this morning, and two callers, both male, actually cried as they were talking about her. That's the sort of impact she had on people.
