    Elvis worried that he would be forgotten. "Hey Elvis! We're all still here and you're not forgotten! Your legacy is timeless and you will live on forever in the hearts of many, many generations to come!!"

    Long story short I had a horrible experience getting to memphis. I get on line and an employee says to me you look like you're having a rough day. I said I am. She comes out from behind the ticket booth, gives me a hug and says Its all right baby, you're at the kings house. What a great place!! TCB!

      I’m so pleased I simply asked my wife out of the blue last week if she would mind going to Memphis and tour Graceland and she enthusiastically said “Yes”!! I didn’t really think it would be something that she would want to do other than go for me but she’s excited about going. We figure sometime here in 2021 we’ll go. I partied most of a night once on Beale Street about 16 years ago. While on a biz trip.

      Well. 100% of all assets were left to Lisa. But I imagine Lisa made her Mother a partner in all future endeavors. Including today’s Graceland experience and The new Guest House Resort.

    I'm only 35 so I wasn't born yet before his passing but my Nanny may she Rest In Peace raised me with his music. I cry when I hear his voice like he was a piece of my family. He reminds me to laugh and to cherish things. If I could go back, I wrote a paper on it I would spend one day singing and talking about simple things in life. My sons 5 and he will grow up knowing Elvis. I can't wait for a chance to walk in peace where he found peace. ❤️

    I went there june 26, 1988. My mom just turned 47 that day. Before we went to Memphis went had to stop at Tupelo at his birthplace. Now mom is 78 and im 54 (was 23 at the time) We will never forget that trip 31 years ago.

    so greatful to prescilla she really loved him she wasn't going to see the place sold , now generations for many yrs to come will be able to get to know him elvis is everybodys friend everybody wants to be his friend there is no artist before or since that will ever be as big as elvis

    **** ELVIS ARON PRESLEY IS STILL ALIVE! However, don't believe me just do your own research. If you truly have eyes to see and ears to hear like the Lord said you will . look up Pastor Bob Joyce. on UA-cam then look for the video of Elvis and his son not singing together. good luck to all and may God bless you🕊*****
