Grand Ole Opry’s Dan Rogers Remembers Country Music Hall of Fame and Opry Member Dolly Parton

As the world remembers Dolly Parton this week, we are taking a moment to reflect on the lasting mark she left on the music industry.

She was a legend who has shaped country music, and you cannot talk about her story without talking about one of the most revered venues in music, the Grand Ole Opry, a place Dolly called home as a member for 57 years.

Grand Ole Opry Executive Producer Dan Rogers joined RFD-TV’s Suzanne Alexander to talk about her legacy, this weekend’s broadcast, which is dedicated to Dolly Parton, and how her impact will live on.
