Dolly’s the real deal, isn’t she? She’s always been good people, and this just proves it again. A million bucks from her own pocket? That’s no small thing, especially for the folks hit hard by this storm. She’s never forgotten where she came from, and you can tell she really means it when she says she’s doing her part.

And leave it to Dolly to turn a serious moment into something special with that little "Helene" song. She’s got a heart of gold, plain and simple.
