Reba was the only one who could authenticate that the jumpsuit belonged to Elvis because she was there when it was given to Dottie. That's why she wrote the letter. We should not be so quick to judge! I know firsthand that Dottie’s Grandchildren CHOSE to sell the jumpsuit to pay off their grandmother’s mounting debts.

Buck, Dottie, and Reba, were all a team. Buck, I am told had an affair, married the office manager (still married today), of every recording that Dottie did for the last years of her life, she made no mention of Reba in her credits. I was also told they lived within 15 minutes of Dottie and never spent holidays with dear Dottie. I don't know about all of this, I just hate to see Reba drag her Mother's estate through the mud. Dottie was the greatest songwriter/singer we have ever known. I had the opportunity to meet her about 7 times, and my picture made with her at least 4 times, I would not take anything for them. May God's will be done. I loved the Rambo’s since I bought my first recording in 1973. Buck, Dottie, and Reba, were all a team.

So, if she wants to buy a new house for them to live in, or a new car for them to ride in, she can do that. If she wants to take her kids on a European vacation, she can do that. Or if she wants to say her kids sent HER on a European vacation, she can do that. Generally, any money that's still there when the kids reach the age of majority goes to the kids. Now, this probably only pertains to the portion that is supposed to go to her kids. I'd be surprised if any judge would allow her to control Larry's or any other adult's inheritance, if that is in fact the situation.

Does this mean Reba does not get to keep any of the money from the Elvis sale but has to turn it over to the beneficiaries named in the will? Thanks Daniel.

Doug, the webmaster of averyfineline.com asked me if I would make a comment and clear up any misunderstandings. Dottie left her personal estate to her grandchildren Destiny and Israel. She left her ministry, The Rambo Evangelistic Association to me. She made this will about 4 years before she passed. At this time we are still having legal issues that need to be resolved in order for Dottie's wishes to be carried out and the ministry to be handled as Dottie desired. As far as the Elvis suit and all Dottie's belongings that was all left to her grandchildren. So I would hope that they would be the one who wreap the benefit of the auction but really that is none of my business. I pray for everyone involved and I hope that I have cleared up everything that Doug wanted me to. I'm only addressing this as Doug asked me to. I think everyone who actually knew me or knew Dottie knew how much my family loved her and she us. And no matter what her relationship with any other family members that she may or may not have made public, she loved her grandchildren very deeply. Please continue to pray for me and my family. I'm still healing up and have more surgeries ahead. But Thank God from bringing me from where I was to where I am. I also ask that you continue to pray for Chris who worked with Dottie as well. God is good, and I just pray that his will be done. If not, then nothing anyone does will ever be blessed. All my best, Larry Hi.

The Post article said Reba owned the Elvis suit which Elvis gave to Dottie. Reba seemed to also own other Elvis material which had once belonged to her mother. If all this valuable stuff was left to someone else, how come Reba gets to sell it for a fortune. I’m confused. The Post article said Reba owned the Elvis suit which Elvis gave to Dottie.

I knew Dottie, Larry and Chris personally and Dottie didn't leave Reba in her will at all. Dottie told me she left everything to her two grandchildren and her ministry to Larry Furgason. Reba's children who still live at home filed to have their mom Reba be executor. After all has anyone even seen Dottie and Reba together in the last decade or so? I won't reveal any intimate detail of what Dottie expressed to me in phone conversations but from stage and television we all have heard how her family dropped her in a hole. As a matter of fact she refused to go to their church because she said it would hurt her name. Has anyone heard how Chris and Larry are doing? Juliebelle how do you know what the debts were?
