Crystal Gayle happens to be the younger sister of Loretta Lynn. I was always puzzled as to why she didn't turn into a big star, although she certainly did well with numerous awards and gold and platinum records. She has the looks, the voice, everything.
She still records (record last year), has concerts, and is still beautiful.
Here's her website:

Here's an excerpt:
Always gracious and generous with her time and talents, Crystal has been awarded the coveted “Celebration of Light Award” in recognition of her myriad humanitarian efforts—among them the Make-A-Wish Foundation (for whom she has recorded the official theme song) and the Arthritis Foundation, for whom she has served as telethon co-host for several years. Fittingly, the “Celebration of Light Award” was a presentation in Waterford Crystal.
One of the most fitting honors in her career came in 1999 when “Don’t It Make My Brown Eyes Blue” was recognized by ASCAP as one being one of the ten most performed songs of the 20th century.
At home in Nashville when not touring, Crystal continues to make the world a little more beautiful just by her presence. Her upscale boutique, “Crystal’s” is one of the cities premiere destinations for the most beautiful gifts and finest jewelry. Her two children— daughter Catherine and son Chris—and her husband-- Bill Gatzimos are her admitted heartbeat.
Like fine wine…time has been nothing but kind to Crystal Gayle
