Jerry Blavat aka “The Geater with the heater”

died this morning at 82. He was in hospice care.

I met him years ago when my friends and I would go out dancing to his spots. He always remembered us, was fun and friendly and always joined us for a dance. I’m heartbroken. RIP Geater 🎼💜😢

I have read she has been devastated since her son committed suicide. I would be surprised if they don’t find a cause for the cardiac arrest that isn’t cardiac related

So sad to lose someone so young. It’s so shocking that she and her mom, Priscilla were just at the Golden Globes on Tuesday evening. Austin Butler had won the best actor award, and he thanked the Presley family. Lisa Marie appeared very emotional. It must have been a lot to take in, and who knows what memories of her dad came flooding her way. So sad for the Presley family.

I’m sure losing her son had something to do with it.

Oh I believe he did too but the white washed version was something heart related. Lying to protect an image is still a lie.

Jeff Beck was an incredible talent.  I last saw him on a re-run of the Kennedy Center Awards playing for Buddy Guy with Beth Hart.
