Sadly, so many of those guys from the '60s and '70s are gone.

Hope Jimmy is okay. Haven't heard anything about him in a long time.

I believe Ellis is mentally impaired and very ill. It's a shame because he was a class guy.

Supposedly has had severe dementia for many years. Haven't heard of him being seen publically for quite a while. Sad for Louisville---Ellis, Ali and Page.
