Note from Kathy on Donations to Haiti

Kathy wanted me to remind everyone to send their donations to Haiti, no matter how small they are. They can use every penny.

The GMA website listed below has a large selection of places to send donations and ways you can help.

Kathy's Step Father Passed Away

It was in August of 2005, that Kathy’s widowed mother Connie married Pete Perry in the nursing home where they met. The local newspaper even sent a reporter and photographer for a special article on the wedding. Kathy sang at the wedding naturally.

The couple didn’t have long together however, as Kathy sadly lost her mother on July 22, 2009 from cardiac arrest.


I’m also sorry to say, that Pete passed away this week during a bout with pneumonia. Pete was in his late 90’s.

Elvis and Kathy Out of Print Book On Amazon

This is interesting to say the least. A used autographed copy Kathy's book "Elvis and Kathy" is now on Amazon for a whopping $2,500.

Update on the Soon-to-be-Released Book on Kathy

A lot of you have been asking about the book I’m writing on Kathy.

Just to give you a little insight into what it’s about. The book covers Kathy’s life before, during and after her seven years with Elvis. All three stages of her life have been fascinating to say the least. Not only have I written of my personal experiences of working closely with her for the last ten years, but theres also lots of surprises.

One of the most exciting parts of the book is how I was able to obtain several chapters contributed by others along the way. It includes chapters and stories from friends from her high school days, as well as ones from friends from her comedy duo adventures with Steve Martin, as well as several chapters that were contributed by some of the people that worked closely with Kathy and Elvis both on and off stage in the 70's.

The best part of course, is that a lot of the stories in the book are in Kathy’s own words, as no one can tell a story like she can.

As the book is now nearing completion, I’ll keep you updated right here on Kathy and I’s blog so stay tuned. This should prove to be a very exciting adventure.

Kathy's New Dog Minkey

As we all know Kathy lost her beloved Bentley http://www.kathywestmoreland.us/7bentley.html last year. She has recently found a new dog and has named him Minkey. She tells in one of her YouTubes (the one in the orange dress)
http://www.youtube.com/junglerom how Elvis loved Peter Sellers and would say out of the blue "Do you have a license for that minkey" when talking about his pet monkey so the name seemed perfect.

I'll have Kathy send us some photos and  post them here and on our website. He sounds perfect for her new dog. She also has several cats and of course her horse Dodyjo http://www.elvisrockson.net/dodyjo.html (which also shows some great photos of Bentley).  Kathy like Elvis is a huge pet lover.

Just Pretend Promotion

It’s probably true that most Elvis fans hold “Just Pretend” as one of their favorite Elvis songs.

There is at the present, a lot of Elvis groups, pushing this song towards one of his all-time classics, also putting Elvis back in the limelight as #1.

Let’s all help with this promotion and get “Just Pretend” and Elvis back where he belongs.

To do so all you need do is get as many people as you know to download “Just Pretend”.

Just Pretend is one of the downloads available on the first box on the left so can easily be downloaded while you're here.
