Memories can bring into focus powerful images wrought with emotions.

Recently, I was thinking about that humid August week in 1977 when I, and the world, saw little Lisa Marie wearing her white knee socks holding the hand of loved ones in the, previously never thought of event the, funeral of Elvis Presley. Similar to the image of JFK, Jr saluting his father’s casket that image of Lisa Marie is engrained into my psyche along with a type of protectionism.

I was thinking that when Lisa Marie died (sadly) fans had to face the unimaginable. That Lisa Marie Presley died, like her beloved father, too…soon.

She left behind 3 incredibly talented daughters and, as is a parent’s worst nightmare, buried a son.

I hope that her daughters will always know that many, as I will, pray for them. Want the best for them and hope that Graceland doesn’t become more… unattainable for so many. With everything now being so expensive I would not want those without means to be regulated to only photographs. Or videos. For Graceland was home to a man blessed by God and yet he was far from perfect. Elvis was…real.

It hasn’t even been a year since Lisa Marie’s passing and yet it seems longer. I guess thats the case when a light ceases to be.

I plan on writing more about this subject in the future.

Take care and may God bless you and yours always.

Factually incorrect.

Biased against Elvis.

Another male-hating film

Disparages southerners

Washes over much of Priscilla’s role in the deterioration of the marriage

Actors seem like they are made out of paper mache

The dialog is consistent with the verbiage in children’s books “Jack and Jill ” and stale.

And Lisa Marie had problems with the script and expressed her displeasure about it.

One day someone will make a movie, maybe a trilogy, that accurately conveys the American dream that Elvis achieved through talent, hard work, and faith in God. I’ve been waiting 7 decades and I am among the last generation that lived throughout Elvis’ career and there is so much to Elvis’ life story worth telling. Elvis’ 3 decades of excellence.

Take care and may God bless you always.
