You have to remember that when I met Elvis, you know, it wasn't the fanfare that it is today or even when he was here in the states and I was in Germany growing up.

I was growing up in the 50's and 60's. Back then they didn't even know what dyslexia was.

Absolutely. I - you know, he was so that much a part of my life that, you know, Elvis, you know, once - once you bonded with him, I mean, there was no - there was no going back. He was just a great guy.

I grew up in Hamburg, and that was like growing up in little Germany. We talked German at home. Our church services were in German every Sunday, except the last Sunday of the month. Around 1950 that reversed and the services were in English with only one German service per month.

Growing up, I was into 'Power Rangers.'

I was a homebody growing up.
