Lynn released a book, a week before her birthday, in honor and celebration of her friendship with the late Patsy Cline.

Titled "Me & Patsy Kickin' Up Dust," the book followed the legendary adventures the two had for the two years they knew each other before Cline's tragic death in a plane crash.

Struck with grief, the singer named her daughter, Patsy Lynn Russel, who co-wrote the book with her, after her late friend.
