Elvis and Maggie Smith-according to Marty "I was there" Lacker
This all goes against what Nancy Rooks wrote in her book about a beautiful black girl who EP dated that worked for him named Maggie. Marty calls her a "maid". But she's only been known as a "receptionist" which is not a maid by any means necessary. Sounds to me by Lacker's remarks that he didn't particularly like her for some reason. Makes you wonder about what really went on around Graceland and what really didn't.:hmm:
Here's what Marty replied to at Alt-King. For some reason I feel that he's hiding something.:hmm:

That's it. She was just one of those persons that Elvis felt sorry for when
he met them by chance. They didn't have much and he liked the fact that she
was very dilligent about going to school.
She basically sat in the kitchen and did her homework which is what Elvis
told her to do. There was nothing romantic going on. She was not that
attractive. When she finished her homework she did little things around the
house that the maids asked her to.
Actually we hardly knew she was there.
