    I can understand that. I had a cousin who passed away and I was close to and I don't make friends that easy because of the same reason I don't trust them as easy as I do my cousin and some of my friends from long years past. We will still be there for each other.

      But, Elvis’s closest handlers, the Colonel & others manipulated Elvis. The Colonel was known to be a heavy gambler. In the end, Elvis knew who his true, genuine friends really were.
      Unfortunately, there was few that really, really bad his back…..

      @theresa6955 ปีที่แล้ว

      @mikeivey7167 Of course, this will never detract from Elvis and his fame. However, my point is that those so-called friends of Elvis did NOTHING to help him. If you saw someone you REALLY cared about in trouble whether physically or otherwise, you would DO SOMETHING. Would you watch that person day after day declining or just ignore it? Lisa Marie, Elvis' own daughter, said in an interview that she hopes they all rot in hell talking about some of those so-called friends. That so-called Dr. Nick should have been put in jail for supplying pills, and there was another so-called Dr Elvis had in Vegas doing the same thing. They were nothing more than drug dealers. Then you add that piece of shit Col. Parker, who used Elvis as his cash cow so he could continue his degenerate gambling. End of story.
