Mary Lillian Parton
“Lil”

August 06, 1951 – June 19, 2018

It is with heavy hearts that we deliver to you the heartbreaking news that one of our long-time staff members and treasured friends, Lil Parton, has passed away.

Many people in the community knew and loved Lil – the loss is devastating and she will be deeply missed. The Museum was a home away from home and her relationships with all of us were very important to her. We, along with the Parton Family, appreciate the outpouring of kind words about Lil and the tremendous support we all feel.

Please join the Parton Family and the Museum Board and Staff for a Celebration of Lil’s Life on Friday, July 20th from 5:30 p.m.-7:00 p.m. It will be your opportunity to honor and recognize an individual who gave so much of herself to so many.

We are grateful to our Host Committee:
Ron Cooper and Mark Kimbrough, Sarah and Carl Gessler, Betsy and Peter Lowe, Narvell Patton, LeeLee Ray, Betty Lankford, Phyllis and Philip Anderson, Bubba’s Catering, Steven Todd Miller, Ken Rivenbark and Randy Roper.

Our thoughts and continued prayers are with the Parton Family.
