A fave of my father who once saw him in a restaurant in the late 1960s. Johnny was getting very close with another dude (not making out, just being closer and “sweeter” than heteros do) and that is when my father found out that JM was a “man’s man.”

Very talented vocalist who is a particular fave at Christmas.

Chances are, he’ll be around for a while.

I love Johnny’s version of “I Need A Little Christmas Now” when it’s early December and I haven’t gotten my decorations all the way up. Gives me motivation to push through the job.

A very good looking, suave singer who chose to remain unmarried. Makes one wonder why ….

A forever classic!

Chances are he is a very talented memory maker from the past.

That was quite a voice. Mom and Dad always get misty over 12th of Never.

My mom and her sister went to high school with Johnny Mathis and Lee Meriwether.

I love this man. Grew up with it!

I don’t care if he’s homo. He was a terrific vocalist, and may have missed out on a promising field career for it.

But you know, he keeps his mouth shut about it. And he really seems to be a very nice man.

Happy Birthday Johnny Mathis! And many happy returns of the day!
