Dear Friends and Fans:
May rocked!
We began the month by driving to Omaha, Nebraska for the All Eras of
ElvisŪ Show. This show was to benefit Hunt of a Lifetime which is an
organization that grants hunting and fishing wishes to children with
devastating diseases. Kelly Peterson and Diana Blumer did a great job
organizing the show. Todd Martin,
Dwight Icenhower,
Irv Cass,
Matt King,
Paul Halverstadt, and
Rick Lenzi were the featured
performers and the show was wonderful! We all arrived a day early for
Diana and Kelly to take us to the Omaha Zoo - what a great zoo! Wish I'd
had a video camera when Irv and one of the gorillas were imitating each
other.....
The following week, Ronny,
Irv, Matt and I flew to Deadwood, SD. If there was ever a town that
loves ElvisŪ, it is Deadwood! Irv, Matt and Ronny almost ran their legs
off making extra appearances all over town. Many thanks to Pops, Carol,
Jean, Ralph, and Bryan for running all of us around town to fulfill all
the obligations. John Loos won
the contest and brought the house down by taking his adorable son,
Dakota, on stage to accept his award. The other winners were
Paul Torrez - 2nd, Oscar Sosa
- 3rd, and Tim Branigan - 4th.
On May 21st, ElvisŪ met the Beatles, again!
Jim Barone and Irv Cass joined
American English to benefit the Animal Welfare League. The house was
packed and could that audience scream!!!
Once again, please offer your prayers for Linda Wagner to aid in her
fight against cancer. George tells us that she is home and doing as well
as can be expected.
Don't forget to check out our new Picture Corner. It's on the home page.
We will try to keep current pictures in this area for your pleasure.
Please! Please! If you have great pictures, send them to me at
