Met Charleton Heston in a key shop. I was flabbergasted and just stood there (probably open mouthed). He smiled, said "Hi" and started a conversation with me. Very pleasant, and very handsome.

Chad Everett grew up in the house behind me.

Went to Mardi Gras many, many years ago. It was a great trip. I met Al Hirt . He came to my table and played, and came over later and gave me a signed album. And also met Pete Fountain. Met Perry Como at a restaurant. He was very handsome in person and also a very gracious person and easy to talk to.

Met "Doc" Severenson. He sure is short. A rather brisk person and he wasn't even that popular back then.

And met Lawrence Welk one time when he was in Detroit. My mom even got to dance with him. That sure made her night.

WOW - most of the famous people I've met are dead !!!!
