The 78th Primetime Emmy Awards honored Dolly Parton during the In Memoriam segment after her death in August.

Her Steel Magnolias co-star Sally Field and country music star Reba McEntire honored Parton together onstage.

As the musical contribution, McEntire performed Parton’s 1983 ballad Appalachian Memories during the tribute.

Field described Parton as genuine, humble, supportive and exceptionally funny, with a bawdy sense of humor.
