A LABORER, A CRAFTSMAN, AN ARTIST quotation

"A person who works with their hands is a laborer.
A person who works with their hands and mind is a craftsman.
A person who works with their hands, mind, and soul is an artist."

  1. Hi there, I was part of the group of girls who hung out with Elvis in the 6o's (64 and 65)at his rental in Perugia. One night you took me and my friend Norma to your home to show us your new place and the view (no funny business) and we all left shortly thereafter. As I remember you invited us to a recording studio so Norma could see as she was an aspiring singer who played guitar. She was about 5ft and 95 lbs and with blue eyes and black hair. I was about the 5ft 4 and 110lbs. with red hair and extremely naivee. I was the only girl who got all dressed up in cocktail type dresses to my knowledge to see Elvis. Anyway, I was hoping you could remember us as the Enquirer might do a piece about the book I have written KINGS OF MEMPHIS: Elvis and Tutankhamen- a story of reincarnation of the two kings. Most of the guys are gone now but I did remember you. Charlie and Alan and I were together the most in that Charlie and Norma and I went to the store for Elvis a few times and Alan was the one who originally let me in and looked after me as I was so green. Anyway, please let me know if you recall Norma and I so I can confirm with the Enquirer. I see your career has gone well and I am glad for you. We were certainly there for the sweetest of ELvis! In 1975 he approved a donation to my charity Aid to the Adoption of Special Kids in Las Vegas. My previous books were with Randon House, Llewellyn, Bantam and McGraw-Hill/Lowell House. I am published in 14 languages for one book and 13 in another. Elvis would be so glad for us both. Hoping you remember us. I am Carollyn Reynolds and my web site is in the middle of construction but part of the old site is up. carolynreynolds.net Thank you Wes, Carolyn
