From Times Wire Reports
Sporting a brand new “Return to Sender” tattoo just above her “Elvis stamp” tattoo, LaVera Chapel waited at the Graceland gates in Memphis, Tenn., for a candlelight procession past Elvis Presley’s grave. The Candle Vigil, as it’s called by the Presley faithful, is the highlight of Elvis Week, a series of memorials, dances and parties marking the anniversary of his death on Aug. 16, 1977.
