Those of you who know me or about me at all know my very close Skeeter Davis connection.  If you just joined in here of late, a brief overview...Skeeter was my idol as a child and I was friends with her from the time I was 4 til she passed away...I told her that someday I would sing with her when I grew up.  Which I did.  She called me in 1996 to come sing harmonies with her and I traveled with her to Barbados, St. Lucia, various cities in US to perform as well as joining her on the Grand Ole Opry sometimes...it was one of the most wonderful periods of my life and proof that dreams DO come true.

I have felt that Skeeter should have been inducted in the Country Music Hall of Fame as well as the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame long ago for her groundbreaking work...and you can read more about it all at www.myspace.com/skeeterdavismusic.  My brother Andy and I set up and maintain this page to keep her music and memory alive.  I am happy to say there is a petition going around now to get Skeeter inducted in the Country Music Hall of Fame!  I'm posting the link here, and I encourage you to sign it and pass it along.  It's high time Skeeter be given a place of honor in the hall.  Here's hoping our efforts will make it happen! 

 

Love to all,
Donna
