george Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Elvis has left the building PATTAYA: -- Elvis Ballard, Asia's top Elvis impersonator, who for many years performed at Jomtien Boathouse and Captain's Corner, passed away from cancer at noon on 19th July. Jomtien boathouse / Captain's Corner are sponsoring the funeral rites at Wat Chai Mongkol sala 2 in South Pattaya on Wednesday 23rd July at 7pm. Cremation is on 24th July at 3:30 pm. Elvis Ballard was cheerful up to the very last moment of his life. His main concern was for his wife and 11 year old daughter he would leave behind. A memorial tribute concert for Elvis Ballard at Jomtien Boathouse is planned, and a date should soon be fixed. Several artists have pledged to perform, notably Elvis Ritchie ( Richie Newton http://www.pattayamail.com/422/who.htm ) Rick and Harpic among others. All proceeds will go towards Elvis Ballard's daughter's education. -- 2008-07-21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
