Dolly is very private about her personal life. I believe she reduced her schedule to help care for him & spend more time at home. I believe he had Alzheimer’s disease

I heard this morning she and he met this first day she went to Nashville, they seemed they were opposites, but it worked.

When you lose some one you L~O~V~E, that Memory of them, becomes a TREASURE.

Seems like they had a good life, and worked at maintaining their marriage in spite of their differing personalities. I'm so sorry for Dolly.
