That's an old article. Mr. Milner died a little over a year ago on September 6, 2015. Still worth a mention though; I always liked him.

Even though it was a year ago, never to late for a fan tribute! Some of you will remember this theme song.

Mary Frances Penick, better known as Skeeter Davis in country music circles. Her most remembered hit was a Country Pop crossover, The End Of The World. Ironically, it topped the charts on Adult Contemporary and Rhythm & Blues. She wrote many great hits for a number of top musicians. A big loss to the music world!

As a regular consumer of his half-and-half lemonade ice tea drink, I will toast him with one of his own creations today out of respect and tribute.

There was a Golden Era movie if ever there was one. The ultimate neo-noir.
