while coming home from Fun Fair Park


OK, I was working at Fun Fair Park (making my $1.75/hr or whatever) and a co-worker came around and told everybody.

I wasn't a fan of Elvis, but I do remember him being 43 or so and I just thought that was ancient.

I no longer think 43 is ancient.

I was a law clerk about a month shy of my 26th birthday. One of the secretaries called down to me and let me know.

Hard to believe he's been dead longer than he was alive.

I was in the Kappa Sig House

I was going into 6th grade, at football practice for The River Oaks Bengals football team. It was HUGE news.

It’s a blur. I’d have been 4. Just remember my mom crying and not knowing why?
