<p>Carrie Underwood recalled a hilarious story about the first time she met Loretta Lynn, and she shared it following news Tuesday of the country music legend&#8217;s death at 90.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/carrie-underwood">39-year-old</a> country singer shared a touching tribute on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CjTPieiOMxu/">Instagram</a> about meeting the famed Kentucky coal miner&#8217;s daughter, calling her &#8220;irreplaceable&#8221; and more after her family confirmed Lynn had passed away at her home in Tennessee.</p>
<p>&#8220;The first time I met Loretta Lynn was at the Grand Ole Opry at beginning of my career,&#8221; <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/carrie-underwood-shines-in-sparkling-halter-mini-at-acm-awards">Underwood</a> wrote. &#8220;I was chatting in the corner with another artist and someone walked behind me and smacked me on the rear end! I turned around and there she was…in a big sparkly dress…laughing as she continued to walk down the hall at what she had just done…&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;This is one of my most favorite stories to tell,&#8221; she added. &#8220;I think it sums up her personality pretty well. She was a cantankerous little pistol…friendly and sweet…never afraid to be herself and speak her mind. Over the years, I have had the honor of singing for her…and also with her…in some of the most special moments of my career.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;She is irreplaceable,&#8221; the &#8220;Before He Cheats&#8221; star continued. &#8220;She will be incredibly missed…but her legacy lives on in those of us whom she has influenced. I am truly grateful to have known such an amazing woman and artist.<br />
Thank you, Loretta, for showing us how it&#8217;s done. May you Rest In Peace in the arms of Jesus and add your heavenly voice to the angel choir. Love you!&#8221;</p>
