Thank you Allen for the multiple postings allowing everyone to express their timely condolences and sense of loss concerning one of the finest men and great entertainers of our lifetime.
On another note I wasn't aware that Andy once toured with Elvis Presley. Apparently in 1955 he joined Elvis and several Grand Ole Opry stars touring the country....Needless to say Andy got top billing...this was in July of 1955 before either he or Elvis had hit the big time. Andy had been touring with his wife, Barbara doing a song and dance routine. So this would have been about the time he started doing stand-up comedy. Tickets for the shows sold for $1.25. How times change. You can't even get a nectarine crush for that price today.
