Oh, dear, favorite songs would be too many to list here, but I do fav the romantic power ballads.

I can't say I like very many of the ELVIS books. Most distort the man too much, but "The Last Train to Memphis" and "Elvis Day by Day" are two that I actually enjoyed.

"King Creole" and 'Flaming Star"

I am especially fond of "Love Me Tender" as that is when I fell in love with Elvis at age nine.

I am very happily married and have an adult daughter and son. My first born child died when he was six years old from Reyes Syndrome after a few day illness.

I love my beautiful Maltese dogs, Bella and Krista. Who are like kids with fur.:) I live in the Sacramento, CA., foothills.

I was very lucky to see ELVIS every year from 70-76. Sometimes I saw several Vegas shows in an ELVIS Vegas show season. ELVIS did a winter show and a summer show each year...and he did two shows each day...a dinner show and a midnight show. I also saw a few of ELVIS' tour shows, two in San Diego (70 & 76), and one in Dayton, Ohio in 72. I preferred Vegas though because I could get next to the stage. Very cool memories.

Written by a fellow classmate in my high school year book, "I hope you meet Elvis someday or you will be beside yourself at the alter." :) LOL
So you see... I have been a devoted fan throughout my lifetime.

BTW...To TCB-world and For ELVIS CD Collectors Only members...My alias is "Sweet Caroline" at those message board. :)

I love everything about Elvis. His personality, eyes, lips, smile, voice, walk, style. You name it, and I love it about Elvis.

I think one of my very favorite things other than his beautiful voice would be his great contagious laugh.

I absolutely ADORE the August 69 live stage version of ELVIS Laughing.

When I met him I said, "I love you, Elvis". Now that he is gone I am so glad I got the chance to express that to him before he was gone from us.

Elvis of course, and my two Maltese dogs that I absolutely adore. I also like to cook, read, and be with my grandchildren, and post on ELVIS message boards. :)
