“I ain’t no saint, but I’ve tried never to do anything that would hurt my family or offend God… I figure all any kid needs is hope and the feeling he or she belongs.

“On the day Elvis Presley died, a scorched Las Vegas had for months been praying for rain. Because of the near-drought, water was served in restaurants only ‘on request,’ at the moment news came over the radio of the death of Elvis, rain began to fall, there wasn’t thunder … . there was no lighting, but there was heavy constant rain for hours; drenching the parched earth, it was as though the Heavens were crying for a beautiful legend who had made so many others happy, but never found contentment for himself.” —Eunice Field
