Lilith,

By golly, you're right. :) As the thread title didn't include Mr. Rawls' name, I didn't. Thanks for the missing link! :D

It was all I could think of when I heard the sad news. That song just kept running through my mind. Just one of thes songs he sang that left a lasting impression on a girl who couldn't have been more than 10 when she was listening to him.:(

Lilith,

He had a very smooth, almost velvety voice, I thought.

You don’t have to be a smart alike about it. :rolleyes:
