The family has issued a statement asking for privacy, love, and prayers as they navigate this challenging period. Cassie, recognized for her serene resilience and profound spirituality, was raised alongside Dolly in the rural setting of East Tennessee, where she contributed her melodious voice to the family’s early gospel recordings.
Despite stepping back from public attention, Cassie continued to be a stabilizing presence in Dolly’s life. In order to support her sister, Dolly has withdrawn from all commitments, offering solace through hymns.
Support has been expressed by fans and fellow artists such as Reba McEntire and Carrie Underwood. As the world unites in prayer for Cassie, we are reminded of the lasting connections of family, faith, and love.
