Two kings and a champ

My family will be in Memphis this week, and Tupelo, Mississippi. It’s Elvis’s death anniversary today. We grew up around three heroes… demigods… actually, one of them is God.
There was Jesus Christ, Elvis Presley and Muhammad Ali. Such was the influence of the three that I have been a Christian community leader, sang in a band and well, my brother plays the Ali role. He has been in 30 fights, with 28 knockouts, and two arrests.
Thank-you mum and dad for ensuring the King of Man, the King of Rock’n’Roll and the Champ were part of our lives.
