I also have parents married 72 1/2 years, still in their own home, Dad still drives to meet us for lunch every Wednesday and they kiss all the time. That's a pretty big claim to fame. This subject was fun.

I met Gene Autry many years ago when I was a young girl in the 50's.

Did David Hasselhoff play Snapper on The Young and The Restless those many years ago? I seem to remember an actor with the last name of Gray.

Never could stand Tanya Tucker until she appeared at the GA Ag Center in Perry and I got to meet her. She was so gracious and friendly that I completely changed my mind about her.

We were sitting on the front row at the Grand Ole Opry and a man in jeans and a T-shirt just walked up and started talking to us. To our surprise, a little while later he appeared on stage. It was Laddie Cain of the Four Guys.
