MESSAGES TO JESSE FOR CHRISTMAS, 2022 & HIS BIRTHDAY ON JAN. 8TH, 2023
<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>
I apologize that I failed to post that Jesse did call me back one afternoon this week after leaving his message on our machine. He tried to call also the night before and his phone disconnected before I could pick up. We had a very nice visit when he called the next afternoon. One of the main reasons for his call was to ask how our little Daisy is doing and he was happy to hear that she is doing well. He was starting to tell me something more and his phone disconnected us again. His phone gives this type of trouble from time to time. He said that he is all right and he sounded wonderful.
Speaking with him was such a joy and blessing for me.

Below is something that I consider to be very touching; and which should be informative to those who still refuse to believe Elvis’ own truth which I have tried (for going on 14 years) to prove here and elsewhere on the Internet.
Those who took note of Elvis wearing the Aztec Sundial suit in so many of his shows approaching the date of August 16, 1977, will be able to recognize the significance of that fact after they view all of the following photos and this excellent video.
The beautiful Aztec Sundial emblem on Elvis’ suit contained the numbers 8 and 16. Those who have read Jesse’s hand-written letters in his book THE TRUTH ABOUT ELVIS ARON PRESLEY In His Own Words and here on my site should recognize the significance of these numbers to Elvis/Jesse. He deliberately chose those two numbers for the date of his “death” as shown in this excerpt from one of his letters written for the introduction to his book.
The below copy is from my own copy of the rough draft of the book.
Below I will show that the numbers 8 and 16 were woven into the sundial emblem on Elvis’ suit.
Below is a cropped and enlarged image of the very outer circle of the emblem. When you look at the full emblem, you may count that there are 16 of these.
Below is a cropped and enlarged image of the design in the second inner circle of the emblem. When you count these, you will see that there are 8 of these.
Also, if one counts the number of the design in the third inner circle as shown below, you will also see that there are 16 of these also.
Below is the link to a page on my original website. You will understand more about Elvis and numerology after viewing this page.
Below is the video I came upon several weeks ago, prompting me to post another article about the Aztec Sundial suit. I have shared some images and facts about this topic a few times over the years because I feel it is very significant in proving that Elvis was planning ahead of time to leave on August 16.
Others have sent me images and details showing their beliefs that there are two 7s on the emblem/suit. I appreciated their sharing their material with me very much but since these are the findings of others, I am not including them here as my primary mission right now is proving the truth about the 8 and the 16 which were the facts I first saw myself.
I have struggled with making the decision to show the below video here on my site because I am concerned that Jesse may not like looking back on the sad and difficult days leading up to his leaving. I feel very strongly that the fans need to see how hard he was working and to understand how sick he was. This will better help everyone to understand why he had to do what he did in order to remain physically alive and to let Elvis the image die.

I just want to let everyone know that our go–between called me this morning. He is doing alright and has been moved to an ongoing care facility. He is still told that he will need to be there until the middle of January for the care of a surgical procedure site. He is concerned about the mail going and coming from Jesse but there is nothing he can do until he is back home.

No. 1: Graceland – Memphis, Tennessee
“You don’t have to love Elvis to spend an afternoon in his grand house,” says 10Best contributor Melanie Reffes. Every year, more than 600,000 people go to Elvis Presley’s former estate in Memphis. The Christmas season at Graceland kicks off with a lighting ceremony mid-November, after which visitors can tour the home decorated for the season with traditional lights, a life-size nativity scene and Santa. Presley family Christmas artifacts are on display during this special time of year.

CHRISTMAS EVE

TUESDAY, DECEMBER 27, 2022
I want to share a tiny bit of news…very tiny, I am sorry to say. Jesse did attempt to call me last night around 7 PM. The phone rang 3 times and the caller ID indicated that it was Jesse. Just as I grabbed the phone, his phone went dead and we did not get to speak. But, it did brighten my Christmas to know that he was thinking of me and did try to call. I don’t know if his phone is malfunctioning again as it did the last time we were speaking or if “they” are restricting his calls to me. Only time will tell. I am just relieved to know that he is at home and alright.

Another tiny bit of news. Jesse attempted to phone us again this afternoon. Sadly, we had the same problem which has plagued us for this month…his phone disconnected again before we could speak.

This is something very, very important and special IF it really was written by Elvis in 1977 before he left. I know of no history behind where it came from, etc. I would have to see the original handwritten in Elvis’ own writing to be certain that he really did write this.

I did just find that this same poem was presented one year ago by this YouTube channel:
Welcome To Elvis Presley’s World

In regard to the above poem allegedly written by Elvis, my best friend of so many years, MJ wrote to share two links with me that displayed this same poem a long while ago. One of the sites is owned by Sandi Fox Norton who is well-known in Elvis circles. On her site, she shares some background information about the legitimacy of this poem. Below is the link to that website and an excerpt from her site regarding the poem.
I do thank my friend MJ so very much for her input about this poem.
Rare Poem Written By Elvis
“A Poem Written By Elvis”
This poem was posted on a face book page, and I really wanted to share it with everyone.
Elvis What If Says:
Did Elvis write this poem before 1977 ? We have obtained this poem and a four page letter never seen before from someone very close to Elvis. Hand writing experts have examined the letter and poem and said it matches known hand writing of Elvis both in print and cursive.
This entry was posted in Elvis Pictures, Elvis Poems and tagged Rare Poem Written By Elvis. Bookmark the permalink.
This is a beautiful video. Thank you for doing this in such a compassionate manner. The reason that he wore the Sundial suit for just about all of his shows leading up to August 16th, 1977 was because he had embedded into that gorgeous sun the numbers 8 and 16. It was given by him as a clue to his leaving on that date. He gave so many clues so his fans could look back and see that he was planning to leave all along. He had intended to do so in 1976 but he told me that he “chickened out”. He still loves his fans and wants them to understand why he had to leave in order to physically survive.
I thank everyone for taking the time to peruse this rather lengthy article.

I happened upon the following which I have never seen before and thought it was interesting. Of course, this hotel room offer may no longer be available as this was dated in 2016.
update:
I did a little more research and found the full article from which the shorter version (which I posted last night) was taken.
An ‘Elvis & Nixon’ screening at the spot where the film started: the National Archives
By Emily Heil
April 20, 2016 at 11:20 a.m. EDT
The photo of the 1970 meeting between President Richard Nixon and Elvis Presley is the most-requested image held by the National Archives — so a screening of the flick “Elvis & Nixon,” which tells the story of how that bizarre White House confab came to be, held at the Archives theater on Tuesday night, seemed fitting.
https://www.archives.gov/exhibits/nixon-met-elvis/
In fact, in addition to actors Michael Shannon as Elvis and Kevin Spacey as Nixon, the film stars a few other artifacts from the Archives, including the letter to the president that the King penned — and personally dropped off at the White House gates — and a memo from aide Dwight Chapin to the chief of staff H.R. Haldeman recommending that the president take the meeting. “You must be kidding,” Haldeman scribbles in the margins.
Haldeman, though, approved the tête-á-tête, making for one of the most intriguing images of the modern era — as well as the new movie, which debuts in theaters on Friday.
In a post-screening discussion, director Liza Johnson noted that although the script used those source documents, it shouldn’t be taken as a documentary. “I don’t know that every maneuver through the White House actually happened like that,” she said. “But things that seem incredible are true.”
Reality checks, too, came from input by Elvis’s friend Jerry Schilling, who accompanied him to the White House, and Bud Krogh, the White House aide who handled the meeting (and later went to jail for his role in the Watergate scandal). For example, Johnson said, an earlier version of the script had a funny bit of business where Elvis — on his way into the Oval Office, after leaving several weapons he carried with Secret Service — reveals a small handgun strapped to his leg to an appalled Krogh. “Bud said, ‘I understand the nature of comedy, but there’s no way on God’s green earth he was going to go in with that gun,’” Johnson said.
The scene was altered: Elvis pretends to have secreted the gun past security, but when he hikes up his cuff to show Krogh, there’s no gun. “It’s actually a funnier scene because it shows Elvis’s humor,” she said. Krogh, who was in the audience for the screening, seemed to get a kick out of watching his own onscreen exploits.
And the Archives isn’t the only Washington institution touting its connection to the Elvis/Nixon meeting. So is the W hotel, which occupies the space that once was the Hotel Washington, where Elvis stayed during his Washington visit. For $750 a night, visitors can stay in the suite where Elvis bunked out (under the alias Jon Burrows, as he noted in his letter to the president telling him he would await his call).
It “doesn’t come with a white pantsuit, but it does come with a white lacquer desk so you can craft your own special letter to the president,” a hotel rep said in an email.

For the time being, I must hold off sending mail to Jesse. Unfortunately, our go-between is hospitalized. He phoned me on Friday a week ago to let me know of his situation. At that time, he did not know how long he would be in the hospital. He called me back earlier this week to tell me that it looks like he is going to have an extended stay. I held off on mailing my regular weekly mail on Thursday.
I intend to just continue along here on the site as normal and print out the news and Messages for Jesse each week. I will keep everything and will mail it out as soon as possible. The go-between said that he could be in the hospital until mid-January.
I am very sorry about this delay in mailing to Jesse and certainly am very concerned for our mutual friend who has been our go-between for so many years. He is very devoted to Jesse just as I am.
Please do continue adding your Messages for Jesse to that page and I will print them out at intervals and have them prepared to mail to him at the earliest opportunity.
I thank everyone for your understanding and patience.
