As a kid I met Troy Donahue but by then he was getting quite a bit of age on him and wasn't cute anymore. I've also met: Donna Fargo, Jerry Reed, Gene Watson, Red Sovine, and Minnie Pearl. Jerry Reed was a tiny little man but a great kisser, one of those toe curling kissers. But the best of all was when, at 16 yrs old, I got to ride in an elevator with none other than the great Kathrine Hepburn. I met Judy Martin a few months ago and on June 6th I get to meet Carol Doak at Threads of Time Fabrics in Danville, Il. Oh, I met Dave Wanstat (sp?) coach of the Chicago Bears once and had my pix taken with him. Doug Wilson, the decorator on tv, worked for me for awhile when he was attending the Univ. of Il. And I used to party with Asleep At The Wheel whenever they were playing in Champaign which was about every 6 weeks 30 some years ago. Ray slobbered when he drank too much. And I've met Eleanor Burns.
