Sharing her heartbreak, Warwick said:
“The Heavenly Father has made the decision to bring another of his children to him. Dolly, a true child of God, is in the best hands now. Resting in peace.
I will certainly miss her laughter, jokes and her being. Rest well and in total peace my friend. Sincere heartfelt condolences to Danny, family and those who knew her. My heart is heavy.”
The touching message carries added weight given the pair’s shared history.
In 2023, the two legends finally joined forces for the Gospel duet ‘Peace Like a River,’ marking their first musical collaboration after decades of mutual admiration. Parton wrote the song and spoke warmly at the time about getting to record with someone she had long considered an idol.
Warwick’s words are among a growing wave of tributes honoring Parton’s life, music, and decades-long impact on entertainment following the announcement of her death hours.
