This may have been mentioned here already, but I could not locate anything about it. However, Mr. Lloyd Presley, one of the original founders of Presleys' Coutry Jubilee passed away on October 23 at the age of 86. Does anyone have any thoughts, or fond memories of watching this gentleman perform on stage with his family? :)

Saw Mr. Presley perform several times in the 70's and 80's and just saw him in attendance at the show in mid August when my wife and I saw it. Mr. Presley was sitting in the audience watching the show, and was introduced from the stage. He waved his hands to the crowd, who applauded him. Sorry to hear he's passed. He was a legend in the Branson entertainment community, and one of the people who helped provide me and my family with many happy memories.
