HI Chris, and thanks for your added input. I actually ate at Johnnies when I was there, but did not ask for the Elvis table. Should have talked to you before that. I knew that Jesse Garon was still buried in Tupelo, though didn’t know when. As you probably know there is a memorial plaque to Jesse at Graceland’s mediation garden, close to Elvis’ grave.

I’ll be back to Tupelo someday. I don’t say that about a lot of places I visit, although I enjoy many of them. But Tupelo and the warm kind folks of Mississippi have stolen part of my heart.
