40th anniversary of the death of Elvis

(from the Ed Parker Sr. Facebook page today)

"Now the story has come full circle. I stood with a tear-streaked face beside my friend. He lay in state in regal splendor. There was no evidence of pain or suffering. The crowds were gone. We were alone for the last time. Tears stained my navy blue coat. I wept because I was going to miss Elvis. An overwhelming emptiness overcame me as I reflected on the treasured moments we had so often shared. Never again in this life would we explore the depths of reason and human understanding. I was happy for him. He was at peace at least." - Inside Elvis by Ed Parker
