One of Barbara's favorite quotes is:""You can't charge an old battery with an old battery!" George Fleming on hanging out with us " Young Beautiful Girls"! George was probably 85 at the time, played a mean trumpet and is missed by all who had the pleasure to meet and perform with him another freat George F Quote "Skinny Woman ain'tgood for nothin but to run and getcha a Big Legged Woman"!! Gotta love him!
Careful grooming may take twenty years off a woman's age, but you can't fool a flight of stairs. Marlene Dietrich".
