Watch Dolly Parton and her sisters sing 'O Little Town of Bethlehem' in 1990
In one of the special’s most touching moments, Dolly’s parents tell the story of the traditional gift they had shared since their first year of marriage, 51 years earlier. Because they were so poor then, Avie spent the one dollar she had on a handkerchief and a box of chocolate–covered cherries for her husband. It became a Christmas tradition for the couple, ending when Lee passed away in November 2000. Avie Lee Owens Parton died in December 2003.
Although her parents are both gone now, their memory — and the memories of the entire Parton family — live on in, NBC’s autobiographical film starring Jennifer Nettles and Ricky Schroder as Avie and Lee, with Alyvia Alyn Lind in the role of young Dolly. In addition to well-deserved rave reviews for the cast, the film’s initial airing drew
viewers and, like Parton’s family reunions and her daddy’s chocolate-covered cherries, the family film has become a Christmas tradition.
