In terms of grades & evaluation, 6 out of 8 feels so much better than 75%.

Here's the official announcement of Parton's passing from her reps, along with the request that in lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library at www.imaginationlibrary.com

NASHVILLE, TN (August 25, 2026) – Global icon and humanitarian, Dolly Parton, known to the world as a beloved singer, songwriter, philanthropist, actress, playwright, and author died peacefully today in Nashville, Tennessee. She was 80 years old.

Dolly is preceded in death by her beloved husband of 59 years Carl Thomas Dean (1942 – 2025), her mother Avie Lee Caroline Owens (1923 – 2003), and father, Robert Lee Parton, Sr. (1921 – 2000).

A rhinestone life that shone bright enough for the world to see, Dolly will forever stand as an inspiration not only through her timeless music and prolific songwriting, but also her wit, warmth, and kindness that made us all feel like family. Dolly Parton’s legacy is one of love, compassion, and resilience. With a seven-decade career, she inspired multiple generations of artists and fans with her music and an unwavering commitment to making the world a better place. Her songs will continue to resonate with people of all ages, and her philanthropic work will have a lasting impact.

At Dolly’s request, a small, private service will be held for immediate family. Dolly’s fans and friends from around the world are encouraged to pay tribute to Dolly on social media by tagging @DollyParton or by leaving a message at www.dollyparton.com.

My late husband died of lung cancer about 22 years ago. He was a high energy theoretical physicist and when we were told it had metatisized to his brain, it broke his heart. If something could have prevented that...😢 Brain cancer breakthrough at McMaster University share.google/u71uco5p5QIF...

A new therapeutic approach developed by McMaster researchers could help prevent brain cancer. Here’s how.

A team of researchers at McMaster University may have unlocked the key to intercepting cancer cells before they reach the brain.

Charles Hefling painted this illumination (featured on the cover of Jeremy Wilkins' excellent Before Truth) for Bernard Lonergan's birthday in 1980. It depicts the "O sapientia" antiphon sung during evening prayer on Dec 17th (since the 8th century). Happy birthday, Bernie. Ora pro nobis.

The cover of Jeremy Wilkins' book, Before Truth: Lonergan, Aquinas, and the Problem of Wisdom. It includes an illumination of the O sapientia antiphon, sung on December 17th during vespers since the 8th century, painted by Charles Hefling and gifted to Lonergan for his birthday in 1980.

Something you might notice in the gospels if you keep an eye out for it is how often Jesus is very nearly seized and killed in the street. Several times he narrowly escapes, until he very famously doesn’t.

From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."

The Blue Jays were the true winners this season. Their heart and team spirit are unmatched in baseball and any other sport. Minor league players became stars. Stars became superstars. Thank you for the memories, the fun and the great season of incredible baseball! #BlueJays
