The Crush

  Today would have been Elvis' 78th birthday.  Five years older than Dorothy.  She had an intense crush on him: she absolutely loved him, the first and only star she felt so deeply about.  One time, reflecting, she seriously asked me if I thought she would ever meet him in person.  She had grown so stunning at this time in her life, I thought it possible that she might well meet him, and said so.    Now I wonder.  I'd like to think so, but I can only wonder.
