Fame and wealth could not buy what Elvis needed most ...Elvis Presley didn't invent loneliness, but he was lonely all his life.At birth he lost a brother, and grew up an only child.In death, he was surrounded more by luxury and extravagance than friends.He became a prisoner of his own popularity,separated from those who really loved him by necessity.Marriage failed him, friends disappointed him.He was still a star, still an idol,and he loved us as much as we loved him,but there was no personal way to say that.He was a decent man who endured the saddest pain of all ...being lonely in a crowd.
