“Gone,” by Heatherton, was the best rendition ever! It still brings tears!
Definitely! I agree, Daveed! Joey Heatherton did sing the best rendition of ‘Gone’!
Just saw a clip of Lance Rentzel who was married to Joey Heatherton way back when! Still remember Joey from the good old days poolside at the Rockville Links Country Club. She seemed to fade into oblivion in the 1980’s. Funny…I still remember her old address…think it was 7 Maine Avenue RVC 11570. Turns out now we are both spending our later years in Southern California. Maybe we will someday run into each other.
