Country music star Loretta Lynn died Oct. 4 at the age of 90. Her life story was made famous in the film Coal Miner's Daughter. She had 16 No. 1 hits, some controversial in their day because they were about drinking, divorce, wayward husbands, and birth control. She spoke with Terry Gross in 2010. Also, we remember Sue Graham Mingus, who died Sept. 24 at the age of 92. After the death of her husband, composer and bassist Charles Mingus in 1979, she devoted her life to keeping his legacy alive.
