I met your mom Loretta at a concert in Asheville, NC and spoke with her just before she went on stage to perform. She confided she was very nervous as she prepared to go sing. I was dating Nature Boy Dick West (Jerry Lee Lewis business manager and Dick introduced us) then and Loretta was so nice and down to earth at that time and so sincere. Doo was there but I did not meet him.
Patsy, I love your mom. She is my favorite and we share the same birthday…mine is April 14, 1973, and hers is April 14 1932! I would love to meet your mom and you girls someday.
Hi Patsy,
I used to study the Bible with you and Peggy many years ago when we lived in Waverly and knew Vic and Bev Webb. Just saw a documentary on your mom. I live in California, but I still, try to keep track of ones like you who I used to study with. With times becoming so critical I have been offering to text a scripture that is thought-provoking and meaningful two or three times a week, ones that give hope for the future and answer questions ones as you might have. I am still one of Jehovah’s Witnesses. I would love to hear from you.
I hope that you and your family extended family are safe during this ‘pandemic’ plus the ‘Civil’ { UN-Civil} Unrest. Seriously, I love your mom’s music- and I LOVE YOUR Music!
I live in Illinois, but, was thinking of moving- Is TN. A Good State? Thanks, Sincerely, Carolyn J.
May God Bless You and Keep You, Make His Face to Shine Upon You, and Give You Peace
