Action News 5 is reporting that Charlie Vergos, who opened the Rendezvous in 1948, has died in his sleep at age 84. The article notes that “everybody who’s anybody” has been to the Rendezvous, and that’s certainly true. I remember President Bush bringing the Japanese Prime Minister there after a Graceland visit in 2006.
My condolences to Mr. Vergos’ family and friends.
