Hi, Devon,
I don't think Pat Boone did it with anyone but I think there was a
version by Skiter Davis.

Hi, Linda. I definitely remember that song, but was it done by someone else
a few years later? In 1953, I would have been two, and I doubt that I would
recall something from when I was that young. Or perhaps somebody played it
several years later, and I recall it from then. Did Pat Boone record it
with someone? At any rate, thanks for this, Linda. I have a couple of
other songs by Jean Sheppard, one of which was done in the sixties, I hope.
It's called something like Playinng Second Fiddle to An Old Guitar. She
yodels at the very end of it. Apparently, she yodelled quite often, but
that's the only bit of yodelling I have by her. The other song was done
with a guy named Ray Pillow, and it's called I'll Take The Dog. The husband
and wife are quite happy to divide everything else up as they arrange their
separation, but if one of them has to do without the dog, ... well, maybe
they'll stay together after all, lol. I can put both of those songs up
here. Does anyone know whether those songs were indeed recorded in the
sixties? Are there any other songs I should play on the weekend? Thanks.
Devon.

Subject: [ourplace] Sending Jean Sheppard "A Dear John Letter"
Hi All,
Time didn't permit me to send this attachment last night. I'm up early as I
have a pending appointment and have to be ready for Paratransit to pick me
up between 6:40 a.m. and 7:10 a.m. I'm sending the song which put Jean
Sheppard in the limelight in 1953. She did this song with Ferlin Huskey.
It's called "A Dear John Letter." Hope at least a couple of you like it.
Linda G.
