"BE PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN, BEFORE YOU ARE PROUD TO BE AN ERocKer"
I AM IN A ETA DOCUMENTARY CALLED (MAGNIFICENT OBSESSIONS)... Right under this note. A LONG WITH SOME GREAT OTHER ETA's WHO I AM PROUD TO CALL MY FRIENDS, MY BROTHERS. DOUG CHURCH, GARY ELVIS BRITT, JELVIS, STEVE ELVIS GILLIS, STEVE ROBERTO, AND MANY MORE. I I HOPE YOU ALL ENJOY IT, MY MANAGER SHERI SAID, WELL IT LOOKS LIKE WE MADE THE BIG TIME NOW THAT WE ARE IN A DOCUMENT RY. WE JUST LOL ABOUT THAT, WE STILL HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO. NOW I WAS ABOUT 285LBS WHEN THIS WAS FILMED, AND YOU KNOW THE CAMERA ADDS 20LBS SO I KNOW I LOOK 300LBS IN THIS, BUT I'M PROUD TO SAY I WADE IN AT 250LBS YESTERDAY, AND HOPE TO LOSE ANOTHER 20LBS. THIS WAS FILMED IN TAMPA FL. 2008 STATE FAIR, WHERE I WON BEST SOUND ALIKE TO ELVIS, TO ME THAT WAS JUST A FLUKE. I STILL THINK IT SHOULD OF WENT TO DOUG CHURCH, I TOLD HIM I CANT EVEN PACK YOUR UNDERPANTS MY BROTHER. HE IS A GRACIOUS ETA, A FINE GENTLEMAN, AND I COULD LEARN A LOT FROM HIM. Part 1
When I was just 13 years old, I nearly ended my life. My life up until then had been very difficult, and I was just so tired. I had been split from my family, torn from my Mother and sisters at the tender age of 6, picked on by my peers and made to feel worthless to this world. I had given up and lost all hope. I did not want to go on and I longed to just end it all and be free.
Through the graces of God, I had been raised by my Aunt Billie who was so dear to me, like a Mother, and to me she is my Mother and always will be. She taught me about Elvis Presley, and showed me his amazing talent and generosity. She treated me as her own and made me feel safe again. When I was young she took me to see Elvis perform live in Anaheim, Ca and I was forever changed. Elvis and his music filled my soul and I have never been the same.
I believe that God sent these two people to save my life, …and they did. God worked through my aunt Billie who worked through Elvis to reach my vacant heart. I can remember sitting alone in my room at that desperate hour, and it was like only Elvis and I were there together. As I contemplated my life, I thought about Elvis and how I looked up to him and admired him so much. I thought that if I could somehow be like Elvis, that maybe people would like me. Thinking those thoughts, I just couldn’t do it. I couldn’t end this life that God had given me. I wanted to live !
When I was 16 my grandmother came to me and told me that Elvis has passed away. At first I didn’t believe her, and then I saw it all over the news. I could feel my heart break in that instant. My mentor, my friend, my brother….he was gone. What would I ever do ? How would I go on ? How would the world ever be the same ? All I could do was pray that God would see me through, and that maybe someday….I could sing like Elvis. Maybe someday I would help people see the amazing man he was. That night, God answered my prayers, and told me that my strength is in HIM, and not Elvis. I think that is what Elvis would have wanted me to know, and now I do.
I lost my Aunt Billie (MY Mama) in 2007. I still have her precious Elvis photos which she gave to me and I cant help but think how much of an angel she was to me. She not only loved me for me, but she taught me about Elvis Presley. I thank God everyday for my “Mama” and for Elvis Presley. I can’t wait to see them both again one day up in heaven, where we can be together, and forever sing in that angelic choir in the sky.
"I love this video of all the funny mess ups, he was too funny" MATT & ERocK TOGETHER AGAIN (YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS IT) "TAKE A STAND TRIBUTE ARTIST, AND BE TRUE TO YOUR WIFE, AND LOVE HER WITH EVERY CELL OF YOUR BODY" You know I believe in my heart that Elvis truly wanted to be a faithful husband. I think all of us ETA's should try to do are parts in not only keeping Elvis's Memory alive through our tribute to him in performance and song, But we should also try and be what he wanted to really be in his heart, soul, & mind to his wife and Family, and most of all to God. You can tell by some of the songs he sang in the later years, he was hurting deep inside for hurting her, so deep, that the marriage ended. But thank God not the love they had for each other and the friendship. He was truly blessed to have the love & fogginess from her. But some are not so lucky, and I think if he would of had a better support team near him, they would have made it till the end. All you ETA's who are married, and even the ones of you who have girlfriends that you love, be careful out there, and resist the temptation. If it's hard for you find a brother ETA or close friend, a Pastor. Find someone who you can confide in and that will help you make the right decisions. we can and need to be a good example to our family's, fans, and the children. And most of all love your wife with your whole heart, soul, and mind. Don't let Temptation get the best of you. Losing your wife and family, is not worth some side-burn Chaser. But most of all it's not worth seeing the devastation it causes in your loved ones. Let all us fans and ETA's Take a stand, and truly become a Faithful and loving support group for our Friends and Family's here on Tribute Radio.

When I say I love you, I'm not just expressing a feeling, I'm solidifying a commitment; planning on taking my whole life to show it to you
When I say I love you, I'm not claiming to have all the answers, but I'm hoping that together we can ask all the right questions.
When I say I love you, I'm not just repeating til death do us part, I'm saying I'll be with you forever - in this life and the life to come.
When I say I love you, I'm not just voicing mere words, I'm telling you that I've been surprised, challenged, shocked, and humbled--realizing that soul mates really do exist.
When I say I love you, I'm not just giving you human love, but I'm attempting to pour out God's unconditional, sacrificial love; dying to self in hopes that I can better honor and serve you.
KIM, you're the woman of my dreams, an undeserved blessing, and a gift from God. To much of the world my life will be closed, but to you I open my heart. I don't know what the future holds, but I know that I don't have one without you.
So, just know that when I say I love you, I love you!
Eric, When I say I love you, I'm not just making you my husband, I'm making you my strong-hold, the family leader, my heart's protector, and my good night kiss.
When I say I love you, I'm not just standing before family and friends, I'm kneeling before Christ our Savior and praying that His grace will knit our lives together.
When I say I love you, I'm not just adding your last name, I'm subtracting our loneliness, dividing our sorrows, and multiplying our joy so that two may become one.
When I say I love you, I'm not just asking you to make me whole; I'm asking you to stay focused on God, then together with His strength and will, we will be made holy.
When I say I love you, I'm not expecting happily ever after, I'm preparing to walk through the mountains and the valleys, swim through the joys and the sorrows, battle the good times and the bad so together we can make a life.
When I say I love you, I don't want big houses or fancy cars, I just want to live in your arms and touch your heart so we can dream bigger dreams than we could separately.
Eric, you are the man of my dreams, a real-life knight in shining armor, and I've never had such peace as I have with you. I'm never closer to God than I am when I'm with you. I know I'm not perfect, but I know that we fit perfectly together.
Just know that when I say I love you, I love you!!
