Mark Chacall, He was a great man and artist we were good friends for a while, the age difference was huge I was 19 he was.... in his seventies I guess! We had great fun in London, he was a bit weird though at the time.... Also met Jagger, Ritchards, Wyman, George Harrison... Forgot a few probably... O yeah and Bowie, but I never talked to him.
Oh one more now that I think about it. I am not sure of his name. But I have been told when I was little, I played with a "little person" at the circus. Then later on, he played one of the "Umpa-Lumpas" In Willie Wonka and The Chocolate factory

Did not meet him exactly but saw him swimming at dawn in Florida. My mother and I got up early to watch the sun rise over the ocean. We noticed this gentleman swimming. Thought it was odd that he was out there so early. As he walked up the beach to his car, he smiled at us and nodded. My mother said his parents lived in the same town.
I thought it was rather sad that he had to enjoy the ocean in the dark to avoid being mobbed by his fans.
I've met Charleton Heston, Reba McIntire, Sawyer Brown, Randy Travis and Dean from Lone Star...oh yeah, I didn't meet him but I had to go get flak jackets for Arnold Swartzeneggar when he came to my base and was working on the movie True Lies..my colonel was in the movie at the end.
