TWO DAYS BEFORE THE PLANE CRASH THAT KILLED HER AT 30 — PATSY CLINE SANG 3 SHOWS IN 1 DAY WHILE FIGHTING THE FLU. On March 3, 1963, Patsy Cline was burning up with fever. But when the lights came on at the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Hall in Kansas City, she walked out like nothing was wrong. She performed at 2 PM, 5:15, and 8 PM — all three standing room only. She changed outfits each time: sky-blue tulle, a red dress, then a white chiffon gown for the finale. The last song she sang that night — “I’ll Sail My Ship Alone” — was also the last song she’d ever recorded. After the show, Dottie West offered her a car ride back to Nashville. Patsy said no. She wanted to fly home to her children. Two days later, the plane went down near Camden, Tennessee. She was 30. “Don’t worry about me, Hoss. When it’s my time to go, it’s my time.” What Loretta Lynn found inside Patsy’s house after the crash… that part still haunts people.
