Carl Dean
Carl Dean was the husband of renowned country music star Dolly Parton, with whom he shared a loving marriage that lasted nearly 60 years. Born in 1941, Dean was a businessman who owned an asphalt-paving company in Nashville. He first met Parton outside a laundromat the day she moved to Nashville at the age of 18, and they married two years later in a private ceremony. Despite Parton's fame, Dean maintained a low profile, often being described as a private individual who preferred to stay out of the spotlight. The couple's enduring love and commitment to each other were evident throughout their marriage, and Dean's passing at the age of 82 marked the end of a significant chapter in Parton's life.
Born on Jul 20, 1941 (84 years old)
