Loretta Lynn's career began when her husband bought her a guitar and she taught herself how to play, per Celebrity Net Worth. Lynn eventually found major success in the music industry, releasing a number of albums and touring for over 50 years until she was forced to stop due to a stroke in 2017, per TMZ.

At the time of her death, Loretta Lynn was said to be worth $65 million — an impressive number for an even more impressive star. Lynn lived a long life and during her many years performing, she was nominated for a Grammy 18 times, had 21 of her songs become no. 1 on the charts, and even had 11 albums reach that coveted top spot as well. 

At the time of her death, Lynn was living at her home in Hurricane Mills, Tennessee, per her website, focusing on spending time with her four surviving children (her two oldest children have passed) and keeping up with fans on social media. Lynn leaves behind her children, grandchildren, and some of the most iconic songs of our time.
