L.J. A dj friend of mine in Huntington, W.Va. had a little boy that had a disease that sores would pop out on him for no reason. Keith was friends with Chuck Black (the country dj) and every year Keith would schedule a concert in Huntington just for that little boy. He gave all of the proceeds plus some of his own money for that little boys treatment because his doctor bills and needs would be so high. He loved that little boy like you would not believe. He was a good friend and a man with a heart as big as Texas. Jimmie |

Hello Jimmie Martin,Keith Whitley's heart was bigger than Texas and the whole world should know about it. My dear friend his mother (Faye) and family has been through so many sad days of life. I love the Whitley family very much and I know how thankful they are for what Keith has givin' them in his short time of Stardom here on earth. Leo J.Eiffert,Jr. |

i to loved kieth, wore out some cassettes.
but one of my best memories was in phoenix,
denem and diemonds i believe was the club,
i was drinkin' pretty good those days so this might not be to acurit, but i do know it rained like hell
and schools shut down, people out there went nuts.
only 17 people showed up, and my band was front and center...paul on steel, i believe brent on guitar
i was in haven, later i talked with everyone and kieth invited us up to his room. i rode with me guitar player that night and when telln' him about this he said no way ive never met him. ?
i said ya didnt know me 5 weeks ago. having just moved from iowa. never the less we didnt go, and lost him two weeks later. to this day when i talk to or visit "will brown" he always says im sorry before even sayin hello....i hope to see kieth someday............. |

Keith Whitley had he lived to this day and age would have been the Elvis of country Music. My favorite singer of all the greats. Its a shame that we don't have artist today with that clear cut style that seperates them from everyone else. The suits in Nashville have murdered real country music. |

Hello Tom Pickett & Jerry Humphies,Thank you guys for being a real support of my late friend Keith Whitley & his family.Nashville for country music is the unnecessary address for it.Only you old guys and new ones can bring it back by doing it,not by crying over it. Them heads in Nashville ares all about money and not the Art of an Artist with a career in the business. , Leo J,Eiffert,Jr. & Pigeons Band |

20 years and he's still got a career. Bonnie Hill is doing a great job in keeping Keith on the front page of Nashville. You may close your eyes,but,you can't close your ears from hearing him still on Radio Stations across the Country and around the world. Blue bird of Sandy Hook,Ky keeps on shining.Keith Whitley you are the man. Leo J.Eiffert,Jr. |
