I believe Colonel Joe might have
been taller but Tommy was massive
That elephant always seemed to be
smiling (I said SEEMED to be)
They would have been together indefinitely, but Lee Keener was never inclined to subject himself to the atmosphere he found on the Feld show. I almost literally counted the days on the calendar until I heard of the split. I was on Lee's side, and hated that the political scene he found himself in led to the wrenching separation from Tommy. I further loathed that Lee's subsequent decline led to his most untimely passing.
Your right Roger. I saw him one year here in Las Vegas and he did not say anything about not liking his status on that show. Good man and a great elephant !
