According to reports, the “Coal Miner’s Daughter” singer passed Tuesday, October 4 surrounded by family at her ranch in Hurricane Mills, Tennessee. Her rep has cited “natural causes” as the reason for her passing.

Lynn was a three-time GRAMMY winner and 18-time nominee across her more than six-decade music career. She also celebrated 11 #1 albums and 21 #1 singles with songs like, "You Ain't Woman Enough," "Don't Come Home A-Drinkin'," "One's on the Way," "Fist City," and "Coal Miner's Daughter.”

She was also inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1983 and Country Music Hall of Fame in 1988.

Ms. Loretta’s health took a significant decline after she suffered a stroke and broke her hip in 2017, which forced her to stop touring after an impressive 57 years.

Rest In Peace, Loretta Lynn.
