Patsy Cline – one of the greatest voices in country music – grew up in Winchester, Virginia, where the school district recently discovered a handwritten essay she wrote in the eighth grade. It’s the oldest artifact related to the singer.
While in the eighth grade at Gore High School, Cline wrote a three-and-a-half-page essay for her history class about her dream of becoming a cosmetologist.
The essay has been kept in her school files since 1948, only recently discovered when the school system began digitizing student records.Sign up for NBC LA newsletters.
