Due to all of her love and support for Sevierville, Tennessee, the community erected a beautiful bronze statue of Dolly Parton in front of the town courthouse. I remember watching the dedication ceremony on TV in the late 80s. Anyone who knew me during my grade school and high school years, knew that I was a HUGE fan of Dolly Parton. During my visit to colleges in high school, Mom and Dad took me to Sevierville to see this statue. It was a highlight for me. (See bottom picture of me at 15.) As we were on our way to Dollywood, we took a wrong turn and I saw the courthouse from far away. I asked Brian to return so that I could see Dolly once again.
