Yes, this is a true loss for country music in general, especially since Naomi and Wynonna were the top vocal duo in the genre during the mid-to-late 80's B.G. (Before Garth).

When Naomi's death was reported and it said she died from mental illness, I wrote on Tiktok that it sounded like she had committed suicide, though it wasn't acknowledged until a few days later apparently that she had been a suicide. I also saw some suggestions that Naomi may have seen some hurtful comments about how she had looked and which may have pushed her over the edge. I truly hope that wasn't the case but I wish people could scale back on all the hate and hurtfulness they are using computers to attack others. It's shameful and disgraceful. |

Quote by sliderocker:
We do indeed see way, way too much of this kind of shaming of people because of the way they look, and how so much of that shaming drives the kind of mental illness that leads to suicide. It's one of those things that our country ought to be ashamed of and stop right away. But I daresay that it'll never happen.

I wish I could say I disagree with you that it'll never happen, but I'm afraid you are right, and if anything, shaming and bullying is only likely to intensify. I think Devo had it right. We are devolving, not evolving. |

My guess is that it will be a dignified memorial, as it should be.
My other guess is that a lot of the online snarkiness that Slide talked about will return as well...unfortunately.

Just saw this video from the River of Time Celebration and thought it might be a little bit relevant to Linda as it's got Emmylou Harris singing The Sweetest Gift (with Allison Russell).
