A number of cruises I have been on have South African crew and staff and this cruise was no exception.
When I meet people from South Africa, I always try to find out what, if anything, they know about Jim Reeves.
The main presenter of EFFY Jewelry was a woman from South Africa names Mikaya. I approached her about Jim Reeves, and the usual facts we all know, and will not repeat hear.
In my presence, she texted her mother in South Africa asking if she was familiar with Jim Reeves.
I was unable to find out the results.
When speaking with Mikayla, a fellow EFFY Jewelry Specialist, Irika Sharma, pipped up and was sincerely interested in Jim Reeves. We kidded about Jim Reeves throughout the entire cruise.
In order to get an appreciation of Jim Reeves and the excellence of his voice I advised her to download the CD's "The Jim Reeves Way", "Talking to Your Heart", and "12 Songs of Christmas".
The "Jim Reeves Way" has some works of art, two in Africans, "Talking to your Heart" displays the spoken word, and "12 Songs of Christmas", has the best "Silent Night" ever recorded.
Irika helped make my cruise special.
Always spread the word.
