ABOUT

“I Was Born And Raised As Jeffery David Jr On A Farm In Plaisance,  A Village In Southwest Louisiana.  Around Ten Years Old I Learned To Sing The Songs  “You Are My Sunshine And Makes No Difference Now”.  Both Written And Popularized By Our Then Governor, Jimmy Davis. At Fourteen I Met A Voice Coach, Mrs. Martha Clary, Who Introduced  Me To  Big Band Music. Shortly There After, I  Started My Own Show On Kslo Radio In Opelousas, Louisiana, And Sold The Time  Of That Show To The Abdallas Clothing Store.”

After A Few Brief Encounters We Had A Four Hour Luncheon At The Riverside Inn Watching The Birds And Squirrels While We Talked About Our Spouses. It Was Then That We Both Figured Out, That If We Had Such Love, Then We Were Meant For Each Other.
