To Navy Wife, I lived in Memphis all of my life. The last 22 years we lived in Germantown because of crime and crappy schools in Mphs. My husband and I were transferred to Texas 2 years ago. I have to tell you things are worse in Mphs. My husband was a deputy for Shelby Co. and the crime was totally out of control.It's a shame that my hometown was such an excellent place to grow up and the musical history[Elvis&Blues] was so great in the fifties and sixties. We still have family and friends there but my kids have moved to Colorado and will never move back. I don't think we will when it comes time for retirement.It was so cool growing up with people like Johnnie Cash singing in our church choir and seeing Elvis ride around on his motorcycle. Memphis was at one time known as the cleanest city in the world.My, how times have changed.Diane
