The first time he saw her he couldn't beileve his eyes. and the firs words Charlie Dick ever heard from Patsy cline were words of a long sung - sung straiht from the heart - at a high school dance.

She had a voice made to sing love songs - and a life meant to live them. And ehn love hit them, it hit hard and sudden, like a Virginia twister, sweeping them up, and carrying them away.

Together Charlie and Patsy climbed some mountains, and tripped over a few.. but the love stayed.

From the beer halls to the big-time, through her fame and fortune, through his drinking and disappointment,the love never went away. In hard sorrow and wild, crazy joy, the love was always there. Until the end.. and then some.
