Guest R Steele Posted August 19, 2013 Big Bopper Jr. Update- I spent time in Houston today and had the chance to visit with Jay Richardson, aka Big Bopper Jr. Guys, Jay is in real need of a lot of prayer. He continues to fight the good fight, so to speak, but it is a long battle and our friend is weary. Jay told me to say hello to everyone and that he really does appreciate the prayers that have been sent his way. He said, "Keep'em coming!"....I hope that you will consider putting his family in your prayers too. They have been there for Jay, day and night, taking turns at the hospital with him while keeping up their own family responsibilities. Please pray for their continued strength as well. Thank you. I will update you as information is made available to me. Peace, Randy Steele Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ulitzer95 12,563 Posted September 18, 2013 Couple of minor rockabilly deaths this week - Mac Curtis and Marvin Rainwater. You don't really want links, do you? Marvin Rainwater. The only way that guy could sound any more country is if his name was Cletus McMethteeth And despite this he still scored a UK no.1 in the 50s with his song "Whole Lotta Woman"! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted October 2, 2018 On 06/06/2011 at 01:21, Davey Jones' Locker said: Some others to keep a long-term eye on are Buddy Holly's wife, Maria Elena Holly (born 1932), his drummer's wife, Peggy Sue Gerron, (hence the name of the famous song) and Donna Fox (nee Ludwig) who was Ritchie Valens' girlfriend (and after whom that other famous song was named.) I don't have health info on any of them, though. Given that even the Lucy of "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" managed to score a UK obit, then surely these women will.
