Re: RIP Martin Denny

Del Courtney was married and divorced quite a few times.
His wives included Yvonne King of the King Sisters
also singer Connie Haines.


the gang would be seen most every wednesday at the chef's table hawaii kai.
was asked to join a couple times when i stopped in. was good fun.
Also they had a weekly jam session at his condo.
Was wild.
we would holler out a name of a song and Marty would instantly start bangin away on that ol peeanurr. and i mean his distinctive sound fast loud and with no hesitation. and he knew them all.

DING! DING! DING! Props to Kimo for the big band wives and the Wed. lunch group!

I'll always have a soft spot in my heart for Marty and June. Good times, great memories...'specially when I lived on the 2nd floor and they lived on the 4th!
