Sorry to see Davy go. He lived about an hour away from me and I had the pleasure of meeting him through a mutual friend. He raised horses, and really seemed to love them. Always heard good things about him from people who knew him.
Kly, weren't you the one who shared a cab with or knew Jason Miller (The Exorcist actor)? I think you also mentioned another famous person you knew too. Now Davy Jones. Geez, you always rub elbows with the rich & famous?

Haha. Actually, I gave Jason Miller a ride home from a bar that night. We were from the same town, and he was close friends with an older cousin of mine, who was an actor. That's how I knew him.
Davy I only met twice at parties. It's funny, but lots of people from this area have Davy Jones stories as he certainly wasn't a recluse. After time he seemed more of a local than a celebrity. I'm guessing that it was the late 1990s when I met him. He was a guest on the Ed Sullivan Show as part of a Broadway musical cast on one of the nights the Beatles appeared. - as Don Marco indicated.
