    You did a great job, I thought. Heaven sure gained, a beautiful singer, when Loretta arrived. Coal Miner's Daughter, is one of my all time favorite movie's, right up there with Gone with the Wind, and Fried Green Tomatoes. I found your channel looking for interviews with Loretta after I watched an episode of " A Haunting", or at least, I think, that's what the show was called; wherein, Loretta, and her Hurricane Hills home were featured. There were so many spirit's around the place, Loretta, talked for a long time, explaining things, that both she and her family had seen. Loretta told how a big civil war battle, maybe many, had been fought there, where the home was converted to a hospital; and, there was some spirit's from that along with a lady in white, who's baby had died. Pretty interesting stuff. But, Loretta, told how her mama was visiting once, and they were down by some water on the property, when her mama, told her one of her children would drown there. She told her mama all her children could swim, so that not to worry about it; but, Loretta was bothered by it. Sometime later, I don't know how much later, she was in the hsp somewhere in ICU, very sick, when Doo came in, and she said, "OH!" (Happy) You've come to see me." But, he had come to tell her their son, Jack, had drowned. He was riding a horse, and she said, the horse got spooked, had thrown him, and she thought the fall knocked him out, else he'd a been ok; but, he did drown. Very interesting show. If you love Loretta, look it up. Again, you did a great job with this❤
