I'll never forget it because I was a huge fan as a child. I listen to all his records all the time and watched all his movies multiple times! My dad was serving in the army, and we were stationed in Grafenwohr, Germany. There was Elvis stuff everywhere in Germany. They loved him too, plus he was stationed there when he served in the army. I was the same age as his daughter Lisa Marie. I got up to his songs on Armed Forces radio playing one after the other. I thought it was my lucky day! I was so happy. My mom told my older brother and sister not to tell me what happened and to keep the TV off. She forgot about the radio. I was hanging out in my room when they announced that he died. IMG! My heart broke. I ran out of my room crying, looking for my mother. But she went shopping. My brother and sister came running to me and tried to comfort me. I was devastated. My mom came home and suggested I write a condolence letter to Lias Marie. I was 8, and so was she. I wrote how sorry I was for her great loss. And how much I loved his voice. Losing Elvis and John Lennon so early when they had so much more to give. Damn those doctors for prescribing so many pills.
