built 181 days ago
With the support and efforts of Patsy fans and supporters of the preservation of Patsy's life and career, a few items were secured from the auctions. One of the outfits (sold to an unknown bidder) has turned up in a Smithsonian Institution exhibit. Other costumes of Cline's have been seen in the Hard Rock Cafe collection.

For the rest of her life, Patsy would never be the same. She suffered from debilitating headaches so severe she would press her forehead against the cold bathroom tile, seeking relief. She told some friends she had blackouts. She wore heavy makeup and wigs with bangs that she pulled down to hide the scars.

The show is set on the day that Cline died, as a live radio show, Zambrano said. "They're doing a tribute to Patsy, and the radio announcer who is going through her life will say something, and then I sing a song from that time."

In December 1998, Cline’s mother, Hilda Hensley, died in Winchester, Virginia of natural causes. (Cline's father had died in the 1950s.) Hensley rarely granted live interviews, living the rest of her life practicing her craft as a master seamstress in Winchester and helping to raise her beloved grandchildren.

Two theatrical productions based on Cline's life story, "Always" and "Closer Walk" have played venues from Branson to Toronto, keeping her name alive. Even the U.S. government has honored her with a postage stamp.
