Tributes have been paid to Kris Kristofferson, the award-winning country singer and actor following his death at the age of 88
Dolly Parton wrote: “What a great loss. What a great writer. What a great actor. What a great friend.”
She finished her post on social media with the words “I will always love you”, a nod to one of her most famous songs.
A representative for Kristofferson said he passed away “peacefully” at his home in Hawaii on Saturday, surrounded by family.
The statement described Kristofferson as “a peacenik, a revolutionary, an actor, a superstar, a sex symbol, and a family man.”
A message from his family said they were all “so blessed” for the time they had with him.
“Thank you for loving him all these many years, and when you see a rainbow, know he’s smiling down at us all,” said the message.
