Back in the 80's I won a contest to ride the new roller coaster at the local amusement park with Leif Garrett..hey, I was 16, he was in Tiger Beat all the time. And I did get to ride the roller coaster like 10 times without standing in line.

We're friends with NASCAR driver Joe Nemecheck and his family, and his mom and dad, and in fact, I made his son, John Hunter, a baby quilt when he was born. I have met and have autographs from several of the older NASCAR drivers: Mark Martin, Bobby Allison, Cale Yarborough, Buddy Baker, Harry Gant, Rusty Wallace.

When I was about eight a guy stopped his motorcycle and asked if I or my little brother wanted to ride.{Before you freak-it was the fifties} He stopped a couple of days and we would talk to him. Our Mom was sitting on the porch and said we could talk to the stranger.Well, I finally asked him what he did and he told us Oh, I sing some and like to play my guitar. Well, after 3 or 4 days we finally asked Mama if we could ride with him and She said ,"okay, if he comes back you can ride with him."He didn't come and he told me the day before he needed to go to work in Ca. It was ELVIS!

Mine would be I woke up this morning.

Hopefully here are some people out there who think of me as having been a good nurse to them. That would be nice.

My husband and I were in a club in Nashville listening to amateur night. Boxcar Willy came in to watch. I asked him if I could take his picture. He said "on one condition, that you sit on my knee and we have someone else take the picture". So I have that picture. He died about a year later. He was a very down to earth and genuine person.

I've been enjoying reading this so much and love the story of Dancing with Richard Gere in Costco, meeting Bob Seager, Don Williams and all the rest. My only claim to fame is being the daughter of a Chauffeur and a French Upstairs Maid. Ho Hum...

Well, actually it's a constant issue. Over the years we have been stopped many times. People mistake my husband for the actor Ray Romano and other times for Nicholas Cage- (neither of which I see) Anyways. Since the show Everybody Loves Raymond we have been approached and asked many times about who he is and then they turn to me and say - and I suppose your name is Deborah. Actually it is.

I was lost and without hope...and Jesus came and found me! :-)
