Quotes:

1. "I had a feeling that something was wrong. It was a very dreary day. And I walked out thinking, I don't even want to go out of the house today. And I went back into the house and that's when I heard. The telephone call revealed that Elvis was, in fact, in the hospital - or on his way - and that he had died. There was a void there that I never thought could be filled. There was an emptiness. I remember thinking, 'How in the world do I go on with my life knowing that he's not here?"
2. "You know the black hair, the bouffant look, was almost like a little bad girl look. I liked it. Oh, my gosh! It was quite glamorous. It was really, 'I'm hot"
3. "When Elvis started to eat the lasagna and he had a really hard time. He asked for a steak knife to cut it… And I'm going, you know, I thought he was joking me. And he finally got into it and it broke… because I had forgotten to cook the lasagna. I just laid it down and put the sauce on top of it…It was so embarrassing. "
