Elvis - Memories beyond Graceland Gates

Postby Sarena on Sat Aug 26, 2006 5:23 am

I would like to recommend the book ELVIS - MEMORIES BEYOND GRACELAND GATES by Mary Jenkins, who was cook and maid in Grace land for many many years even after Elvis' passing.

The book is written in a simple and honest way and once more the personal side of Elvis comes forth in a very touchingly.

There are also many photos.

Mary writes on the first page:



This book is dedicated
to

Lisa Marie Presley


In living memory of her father,
the best friend I've ever had.



DEAREST MARY, JAN, 22,88

I LOVE YOU

I MISS YOU

AND I WILL BE THERE SOON.......

I JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I THINK OF YOU EVEN THOUGH I AM NOT THERE......

YOU ARE ALL A BIG AND SPECIAL PART OF MY LIFE.......

LOVE ALWAYS

LISA

Thank you, Christine.

Lisa's words are very touching and also the fact that the book was dedicated to her.

I honestly believe that Elvis is the one person about whose person THE VERY MOST BOOKS have been and still will be written! There seems to be no end! And I very much am happy that so many years after his passing so many GOOD books are being published!!!!

This is a thought I often have, Sarena.

How is it possible that a single man attracts so much interest and curiosity in so many levels? (Probably, it is the theme of some of those books. ) :roll:
