May 11, 2008 - Remembering Dottie Rambo

MOUNT VERNON, MO - May 11, 2008 - Gospel singer-songwriter Joyce "Dottie" Rambo died early Sunday when the bus she was in ran off the road in Southwest Missouri and struck an enbankment. Rambo, 74, of Nashville, TN died in the crash about two miles east of Mount Vernon on Interstate 44, the Missouri State Highway Patrol said. Seven other people in the bus were injured, and were hospitalized in Springfield, MO with moderate to severe injuries, the patrol said. It was unclear if the accident, which occured about 2:00 a.m., was weather related, the patrol said. Severe storms and tornadoes hit the region about 6:00 p.m. Saturday killing 14 people. Sustained winds and storms swept through the area later in the night, according to the National Weather Service.

"She was a giant in the Gospel Music Industry," said Beckie Simmons, Rambo's agent. "Dolly Parton recorded some of her songs." Rambo was inducted to the Kentucky Music Hall of Fame in 2006 and the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2007. Rambo has had more than 2,500 published songs, including gospel classics such as "He Looked Beyond My Faults and Saw My Need" and the 1982 Gospel Music Association Song of the Year, "We Shall Behold Him."

Dottie's former husband, Buck Rambo, told Paul Heil of The Gospel Greats program, that Dottie was apparently asleep in her bunk at the time of the mishap. The force of the impact apparently threw her to the floor, causing injuries which proved fatal.

Dottie and her entouage were enroute from Illinois, where she sang Saturday night, to the Dallas/Fort Worth area with Lulu Roman and Naomi Sego as part of what is being called the "Golden Girls of Gospel Music Tour." She was on her way to a Mother's Day performance in North Richland Hills, Texas.
