A true music legend has left us: Jeanie Poling, the unstoppable force of country and bluegrass, passed away at 68 after a courageous three-year battle with two rare cancers.

Friends recall her fierce spirit — even during treatments, she’d raid “rockstar clothing hunts” to stay fabulous. Her husband confirmed she died from pneumonia, a complication of her illness, and praised the outpouring of love as their children step in to support him. Jeanie’s legacy? Unforgettable music, boundless joy, and an indelible mark on every soul she touched. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
