LORETTA LYNN FAN WEBSITE

Well this is going to be more about my hubby and daughter more than myself...see we are a very unique family. I am 32 and my husband is 71 ( no thats not a typo). and the precious little girl in my profile pic is our ( again not a typo) daughter. She is 6 months old and her daddies only child. But even more than that Kenneth worked in the coal mines from the age of 21 til he was in his late 40's. So you see Zida ( my baby girl) is a coal miners daughter. Now i know there are babies born every day to coal mining families and I pray God blesses them with their daddies for a very long time. But  I doubt you will find a newborn that can grow up hearing stories about her daddy using the same equipment that Loretta Lynn's daddy used! Kenneth has hung alot of his old tools etc in her bedroom ( everything from the carbid lamp off of his cap to his hand drills ). Kenneth is 6'2" and still has a scar on one knee and on his back from crawling to the mine site ( just like her daddy says in the movie).

My name is Sharon...I'm from Eastern Kentucky, born in Northern Kentucky, but now live in about 20 miles or so, up the road from Loretta. I'm loving it over this way...I lived in the Knoxville, TN area for several years, but over here in middle Tennessee is just some different, so awesome! 

I am a 48 year old mother of  three beautiful grown daughters that I love with all my heart and soul, Heather, Amanda and Samantha (Sam). I also have a new grandbaby boy Wesley...he's a newbie...3 months old.

I would do anything in this world for them. I am very proud of who they have become.

I also have three wonderful step-children, Angie, Paul and Nicole. I also have three step-grandkids, Travis, Jacob and Jamie...I love them all.


I'm married to the love of my life, my soulmate, Ed. He is the kind of man I've always been looking for. The only man I could ever trust. He's a man that doesn't just dream of what he wants, he goes out and gets it. He loves to travel, loves seeing new places, he enjoys taking risks, he has the heart and courage of a lion, but is as gentle as a kitten. He loves to play, there's not a roller toaster made that he hasn't been on at least once...lol.

I thank God everyday that Ed came into my life. I call him my savior, because he has showed me what living really means. When I've been afraid to try something new, he stands beside me, telling me it'll be alright, that he is here with me. He makes me feel safe. With him, my fears are few and far between. He and our children are my world. You mess with them, you mess with me.

I'm productive, strong willed, caring, loving, friendly, happy with myself and what I have made of myself. I know who I am and what I want in this world and I go after it. I'm happy in my life and I'm right where I want to be.

I grew up in eastern Kentucky in the 70's, not far from where Loretta grew up...and my house was always full of country music..my dad was old fashion and he wouldn't allow us to play anything but country when he was at home...lol. So, I would play and sing with all my Loretta Lynn and Patsy Cline records and 8 track tapes...hahaha. I remember being all excited about the cassettes...I still have about 6 Loretta cassettes.

I always wanted to be a country singer like Loretta did...I actually could sing really good to, just never did get the chance to see my dream come true or to be a big star. I'll just be happy to be a huge fan of stuff an amazing lady...went to see her last concert of 2010, at her place. It was so awesome, I cried for the first three songs...hahaha...I just could not believe that i was finally there within yards of one of the greatest women that I have ever known...Ican't wait to go to another this year.

I am a native Kentucky girl.  I was born and raised in Louisville.  I am a mother of one beautiful daughter.  My ex husband left us when my daughter was a baby and we've been together as a mother daughter team since.  I have a wonderful boyfriend now with whom I grew up with.  My top priority is my family.  Secondly, I am a scientist for the American Red Cross. I work a lot of hours to provide for my family. 

My family is from a small town in Kentucky and, I relate to Loretta Lynn's songs, upbringing and Kentucky life. 

Loretta means many things for me at different times.  Some days, I just love to sing to her music and it brings me joy.  Other days, I relate to her as a musician and song writer.  On other occassions, she is the story board of my life.  Her music has helped me get through some very tough times, celebrate the beauty of life, embrace woman hood and to be proud of my Kentucky heritage.  I am proud that she is from my state and that she represents us with grace, talent, beauty and intelligence. 

I'm 57 years old born and raised in Caruthersville, MO.  I moved back to Caruthersville, MO in 1976 when my mother was hit head on by a drunk driver and I quit my  job in Cleveland, MS to come back home and take care of her.  I stayed in the hospital in Memphis, Tn for three months with my mother then when we came back from the hospital I ended up staying in Caruthersville where I am  now the Director of the Caruthersville Housing Authority.  I had never married until I was 51 years old and married Mike Hightower of Greenbrier, AR on April 23, 2005.  In April 2006 Caruthersvile including my house was hit by a devastating tornado.  Mike and I remodeled our house after the tornado and then sold it and moved to a small five acre farm in Caruthersville, MO where we have two horses (Fancy and Dollar), one cat (Stormy Weather), one Llhama (Blossom) two humane society dogs (Snickers and Lola).  We both love to ride horses and be outside with our critters.  Mike has his own truck and drives hauling bi product used to make bio diesel.  My Dad passed away October 19, 2008.  I was a Daddy's Girl and always called him my "John Wayne".  Life had been hard the past five and a half years but we are making it by just sticking together and toughing it out.

I grew up listenting to and loving Loretta's music.  I can still hear my Daddy saying how much he loved Loretta's music and all country music, Porter Waggoner, Dolly Parton, Conway Twitty just to name a few.  Country music has always been a part of our lives and we love it all but Ms. Lynn has always held a very special place in my heart.  Her life and the way she loves her fans, you can tell is the real thing.  There is no "putting on" with Loretta she is what she is and that is why I love her and her music.  She is just Blessed and special to so many people and will forever be admired and loved by many.  May God continue to bless her.

My husband and I love country music and was married in Nashville.  We had 50 people travel from our home in Iowa to the great state of Tennessee for our wedding. 

I have been a nurse for many years and currently work with hospice.  Together my husband and I have 6 children and of course many grandchildren.  We are truly blessed!

Loretta has been my idol as long as I can remember!!! We have been to many concerts and in fact when she was just starting out, she sat at a table with my husband at one of the places she was playing in Illinois. Wow, what an honor!!  

 I know the best Classic county music legands when I hear them in my heart and soul. :] :]

 Oh my goodness! Well I first  listened to Loretta, then Patsy Cline when I was very young.Then I started  listening to Loretta's sister Crystal, in the early 70's. Women like Loretta,Crystal, PeggySue, and Patsy Cline are indangered classic down to earth good peoples.I rarely see good people around. Most good people  I ever loved have since kicked the bucket! I was secretly  hoping at The Crystal Gayle concert  to catch a glimpse of Loretta  Saturday September 2nd, 2006 at The Alaska State Fair, but  Loretta never made a surprize showing! I was a little disapointed to be honest! This is when I discoverd Crystal brought someone else as a surprize guest! I thought it was Barbara Mandrell at first, then I got a little more disapointed! !! It turned out to be Loretta's & Crystal Gayles other side kick sister Peggy Sue!! I started to calm down after Crystal and Peggy Sue began singing Lorettas song , A Coal Miners Daughter! I smiled with pride, A I thought of Loretta! I had goose bumps! I realized I hadn't been jipped after all!  besides Peggy Sue turned  to be a good singer as well, and  a hoot! to boot !! :] :]  Which reminds me I didn't know Peggy Sue helped write that one song You Ain't women enough?! As too when  I was watching Coal Miners Daughters the other night, I began to wonder  if that  same  woman of that cheating song , was the same woman that took a hunk out of Lorettas hair?!   If it wasn't then Loretta has some crazy fans. and Oh if I was the road manager named Darrell I'd  keep Loretta's fans,  and Crystal Gayles's fans seperated ,   Crystals NEEDS to keep her hair!   Anyway I'm greatful to be a member of this fan page, and I promise to be respectful, and maybe someday I can qualify to be one of Loretta's top 10 fans?! Pretty please?!

  I  hope Loretta don't have those bad headaches anymore?! I hope they were just hormonal, and not headaches from the coal mine like her daddy. I have empathy because I suffer from bad headaches too.

  Oh dear I don't think I answered the question!? What Does Loretta mean to me?! Well I can almost cry because It truley is an honor to be excepted as a member  this crazy Loretta fan page,  I like Loretta Lynn I like her soo much I'm HAPPY,I'm really HAPPY! Thank you! :] :] God Bless you,  your family, past, and presant, Oh and this sweet Classic county legand page! P.S. even God Bless Loretta's crazy fans! Quote God Is Great, Beer Is Good, and Loretta Lynn'a fans Are Crazy!!
