What a GUY!,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Best of Elvis: Recollections of a Great Humanitarian (Paperback)
Elvis is best known for his fabulous voice...delicious ballads and supurb showmanship! But the generousity in this man's heart should make banner headlines! He NEVER forgot his humble beginnings and nothing gave him more pleasure than to help another poor soul in need. This book exposes to the world the gracious gifts Elvis Presley shared with the world... Many times he helped folks without them ever knowing.... He was an incredible human being and I'm proud to be a Fan of Elvis Presley! May he rest in peace!

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Best of Elvis: Recollections of a Great Humanitarian (Paperback)
I loved this book because of the insight it gave into the love, compassion and generosity Elvis had in his heart for people....whether he knew them or not. And I especially loved the insight into the honor he felt when he attended the festivities and dinner for being chosen one of 1970's Ten Outstanding Young Men. He most assuredly deserved that honor. I will always revere the talent and human being that Elvis was.
