Hi Ladies!
But could tolerate the stardom.
I loved your book. It was so very close
that I am back as I was in 1970. I don’t agree with anything said about D.Ruffin except “so long”…if you all only knew…
I was Tammi’s very good friend. My brother called Ludie when she was Ludie
Crawford…his name was Michael. He also passed…he killed himself when Tammi died…now tell me that anyone loved her more? I also think he was mental.
But bless him he loved her so much and they had dated off and on for a long time. He met her when he picked me up from Motown-LA. She and he really loved
each other.
I was a very good friends with her.
I will just say celebrities know celebrities and people know people. Tammi was a people
If she had lived Diane Ross would have not been near where she is/was.
Everyone knew that at Motown. Still do.
I would LOVE to meet you Ludie!
Love,
Tre’
hi Ludie and Vicki
I read your book and I am reading it for a second time now, it’s beautiful you’ll did a great job.I heard about Tammi(nothing bad)and I did some internet research and ordered the book.She had such a beautuful voice and face to match it! After reading the book i think she was a beautiful person all around.I listen to her and marvin just about everyday on my computer.It really helps to ease my mind. My mom is ill battling breast cancer now for 8 yrs. Its getting the best of her now but after reading the book and hearing Tammi’s ordeal, I have different insights now! It helped with some of my fear, thanks. Ludie,I would love to write you on a personal note if thats possible. I included my email address.
Please keep my mom in your prayers.
Love, Monie
