We learned of Elvis' passing on 16 August 1977. The difference between us and the majority of those on this current hype bandwagon is, on 15 August 1977 we loved Elvis and had not forgotten him.
Since there is not an entertainer, living or dead who deserves to have his/her name in the same universe with Elvis, let alone the same article, no name will be mentioned by this writer. It would only serve to legitimize the grossly illegitimate! Elvis, unlike the others, was not a self-proclaimed anything and when a woman attempted to put a crown on his head, exclaiming, "You're the King,"
Elvis' response was "No, Honey, I'm not the King. CHRIST is King! I'm Elvis!"
'Nuff said!
