Introduction
- This web page is a tribute to one of the greatest human beings in recorded history.
Elvis Aaron Presley, who born to a poor family in Tupelo, Mississippi in 1935, rose to
fame as an entertainer, movie actor and as a humanitarian. One of the things that made
Elvis so fascinating was that throughout his entire life, he was able to maintain the
admirable demeanor of a true Southern gentleman.
- I love The King. I hope you do too, or that you will at least learn to like Him!
