Patsy was only 30 years old when she was killed in the plane crash that also killed her friends and fellow musicians: Hawkshaw Hawkins, Cowboy Copas, and Randy Hughes. Cline was flying home from Kansas City. Home to her was Nashville and she was ready to relax. For the days leading up to the tragic event Patsy performed at 3 different benefit concerts. The concerts were put on to raise money for a mans family who had been killed in a car crash. Patsy put on three amazing benefit concerts just before leaving this world. Her voice will always be remembered as one of the most amazing voices ever. She sounded like an angel when she would sing. The plane took off in rainy conditions and this was one of the main causes for the crash. The conditions were too much for the pilot to handle and the plane hit the ground at full speed. All that were in it were killed. Do you remember Patsy?
