I met Frankie Vallii when I was 20 years old on the boardwalk in Point Pleasant, NJ. I was 20, Italian Catholic, shy and taught not to talk to strange boys. Waiting for a girlfiend who never arrived. We chatted walked around and he was the nicest most gentleman I have ever met. He was 26 at the time; looked like 20.
Last week I saw him live, famous and fabulous from the fifth row at the Bushnell, Hartford, CT. What a show, memory. I brought him a yellow rose and private note. Usher pushed me forward and he winked, smiled and reached for my hand. Im 75 & hes 80. God Bless Him Always, Carole
