REMEMBERING THE KING
Despite inclement weather, thousands of Elvis Presley devotees converged on Graceland today to commemorate the 25th anniversary of his death. A severe thunderstorm briefly delayed last night's traditional candlelight vigil, but King loyalists remained undeterred. In fact, the turnout was expected to outpace the 30,000 who attended the 20th anniversary memorial in 1997. "We are celebrating Elvis and his life and we're here as a big family," one fan told The Associated Press. "This is really the Elvis family reunion."
