Hi, Im Rosie in San Antonio, Texas. For several years my Dad and I would visit Vegas often. Favorite place to stay was the Westward Ho. We got to be really good friends with Michael. I, too, have pictures.Last trip we made was June through July 4, 2005. Sad to say I lost dad July 26,2005 to heart disease. We always told Michael that when we got a show together that maybe he could come perform for us. Now I do produce a couple of Shows. Probably be in Reno area summer of 2011--how about it Mike

EllixMusicxLubbz, it's so funny that you replied to one of my posts about Michael, your Dad because I was just telling a neighbor about my visits to Vegas. I showed her the pictures of me and him and told her what a sweet guy his is. He was the best thing about my trips to Vegas. I'm too old to travel now and wouldn't want to go to Vegas with the Westward Ho gone and Michael with it. Thanks for passing on my good wishes to him.

I saw Michael's show many, many times. Once, I was totally drunk and he dragged me up there and we sang Viva Las Vegas. lol. lol. I was never so embarrased in my entire life and had the GREATEST time while up there. Too bad the Ho is gone. Had some great times in there.

After the closing of the Westward Ho (R.I.P.) on Nov. 17, 2005 (I was lucky enough to be there!) Michael went back to North Carolina to start his retirement from Elvis life!

[EllixMusicxLubbz]

@TwinsZag And now he's a truck driver and is never home, hardly! D:!

[KimmiandBella]

I miss the Westward Ho! Went there with my Mom and brother Joe. Michael let my brother get up and sing "Little Sister" by himself. It was great.

[CrocodileHoges]

[tellismom]

Wow Mike...I was just talking about how our paths have crossed in the past. Googled you and here you are. Sharon

[tcbwflsh]

Michael Kennedy is one of the nicest tribute artist you will ever meet. I enjoyed singing with Michael each time in Vegas. Long live the Westward Ho memories

[39rc6cf]

Ahhh, I have seen Michael Kennedy's performance many times, my mom just loves him. It was great to revisit Vegas with your video. Gee, I should put my footage on him out there too! Thanks for taking me back. Wonder where Michael is performing now? Hey who was that guy on stage with him? Thanks

[junkmailx]

@hy731

Hi hy731, Thanks so much for responding to my comment. I have so many pictures of him with my mom, she loved him. Never went to Vegas without visiting your uncle.

My brother "Comanche" knew Michael and introduced all of us on our visit. I wish your uncle well, we all miss his performing. Hope he still takes out the old suits and does Elvis now & then for the family! Best to you & thanks again!
