Groovy Christmas Memories

Especially when Dad was Dean Martin

If this picture of conventional, domestic bliss sounds too good to be true, Deana concedes that their house guests were out of the ordinary. There was Oscar-winning lyricist Sammy Cahn in the living room playing The Second Time Around. Or Rosemary Clooney popping in on Christmas Eve to sing carols. And Frank Sinatra encouraged Deana to take singing lessons.

    Dean Martin and Raquel Welch walked up to the podium to present some award.

    Dean: “I’ll give 8 to 5 none of you were looking at me”.

    I miss that guy. 🙁
