    People in Elvis's world you'd like to meet?

    We know everyone would love to sit and have a chat with Elvis. Who in his inner circle or family would you like to sit and have a chat with. I'd love to talk to Gladys. As for someone still with us, I think Col. Parker's wife.

    That's an easy question: Larry Geller.
    He talked with Elvis about spiritual things,
    and I'd like to know how Elvis saw himself

    I would love to meet Lisa Marie and get to know her well enough to see what she really remembers about her daddy and her thoughts on her dear old mom.

    I think Lisa. I also would like to meet Red West. My brother met Sonny West in the 80s.

    Definitely Billy Smith. A straight shooter who is Elvis' blood and was his closest friend toward the end of his life. I have lots of respect for Billy.

    He was obviously very special to Elvis.

    I would like to meet Lisa and Priscilla as well, but for Elvis talk I would really enjoy having a long conversation with Billy.
    ...you won't forget me when I go.

    I would love to speak with Mrs. Presley and Dodger, letting them lead any conversation, or not.

    I would then give them a thankful hug, as well as a bigger one for Elvis. I would like to express to Elvis how loved he is by so many people. That no matter what, he would always be welcome in our world, and any difficulties would be quickly forgotten, by everyone, to just have him around with us. I know that for a fact.

    I've been lucky enough to meet many of Elvis' friends, family and bandmembers, but the one I'd like to meet and spend some time with is Red.

    I've met and visited with all I care about meeting. Except for Lisa .
    Actually, I'd like to talk to Al Strada and Tish Hensley too.

    I'd like to meet Red West

    For me it would be interesting to talk to anyone of Elvis' friends but I'd really love to meet Lisa Marie. She was Elvis' little girl and I think it would be interesting to hear some storys that she remembers and I often wonder what she thinks about her dad now and what her feelings about him really are...
    In November I will meet Larry Geller and I'm sooo happy about that!!!!!
    He will present his new book and I'm courious about what he will tell about Elvis' spiritual side

    Linda

    Although I briefly met him in Memphis during ELVIS WEEK 2000, I would LOVE to have a long, sit down conversation with Jerry Schilling. He definitely seems like one of the few guys around Elvis that would really tell you how it was...the good and the bad, without making himself look like a saint.

    TCB!

    If I could converse honestly and at length with anyone right now...I would pick Billy Smith (because he was Elvis' kin, and he spent more time with him toward the end too), and Linda Thompson (because she would have to have some interesting stories to tell!) and of course, Lisa Marie...And if Lisa would be totally honest and outright open about things, I think it would be a hoot to hear her opinions on her Daddy and "Mommy Dearest" as well....lol!

    Daddy, I miss you more every day. You will always be my hero..

    There you go Lea, referring to Elvis' ex-wife in an unflattering way. I think I may have to report you and then lay low for a few days.
    Actually....I think you are on to something with your list. Those are the 3 that I would pick as well.

    My list would be Lisa Marie!!!
