Thanks DG for yet another exceptionally well-written story, really one of your best. I was hooked all the way through. It tugged hard at the heartstrings and brought tears to the eyes of this 'old man'! You gave us a super tale with the kind of happy ending I look for and love. I always look forward to great stories from DG Hear and I can't wait to read and compare those of your fellow contributors (can you give us a list please?). Pete.
DG, I've never been disappointed when I've read one of your stories, but you have surpassed yourself with your latest effort. It is warm, romantic, and it has a fine historical theme. I look forward to your next submission. Thank You. Ronnie W.

Subject researched and story well written
DG Hear has written one of the best short stories I have read. Hear researched the subject of the wild wild west and I take it that like with Deadwood, S.D., the story surrounding Corinna's ancestry in El Paso is also based strongly on truth. I would like to comment that I really like the manner in which Hear, in some of his stories,adds the lyrics to songs. This is a nice added elements to his writing. There isn't anything that I can find wrong with the story. It will surely stand as a classic. RAG
i dont even read romance stories, but this was one of u better stories and no one in literotica is as good as u. thanks for all the good stories and hope to read many more
I have NO idea which part is real and which part is the authors contribution but it makes a good story when put together.. It sounds like Bill and Corinna have the marriage everyone searches for!! They'll be together for 70 years!!
I loved "bed of roses", every version.
The story of Feleena is another highlight.
All three, till this moment, stories are masterpieces of writing.
Maybe there could be a yearly contest be made of this kind of writing.
A songtext could be chosen by us readers from maybe 3 or 4 proposels.
All writers could write their version of it.
But on the other hand, why limit it to a once a year event.
It could be also a category of its own, like the chain stories.
I wish you, Jack, Ronnie and all your editors al lot of inspiration to continu this great work.
DG i really loved reading your storyi couldnt stop myself from tearing up when i read about Grand Pa and Grand Mother Eloise When i lost my Dad over 4yrs ago i could have sworn i saw him in my dream one night he came and sat on my bed but didnt say anything to me I hope you dont think that I`m nuts .
I will truly will give you 1000 for feelings you put into your story with love and feelings.

i grew up listening to Marty Robbins and i remember listening to the song El Paso. how wonderful to read a story that gives it a happy ending at last, and how fantastic that billy and Corinna will live on to continue it. Fact or fiction, i don't care, all i care is how beautiful it was.

GREAT
Love your story. I was born and raised in El Paso in fact I still live here. I love the fact that the love story has history which is a favorite subject of mine mixed with reincarnation. Keep writing!!!
Really a great love story. There are such a small percentage of excellent stories on this site, and this is one of them. You've woven together a believable story with realistic characters and a credible plot line. Too bad I can't rate it higher than 100. Thanks again for this story.

El Paso
El Paso is my hometown and the Marty Robbins songs have always stirred in me a passion for what life was like back then. Thank you for this story and making it so realistic. The goosebumps started as soon as i started reading and didn't leave throughout the entire story. Bravo DG.

WOW!!!!!!!
Some of my best memories are of driving with my dad listing to marty robbins. Thank you gor reminding me of some great memories with my dad. And thank you for one of the best stories on lit if it is possible to give 10* it stil wouldn't be enough please keep up the great job you do with all your stories.
one question, why did the grandfathers house go up for auction after his death? With the family closeness and the years to plan, was there not a will? it just seemed to be an oddity near the end that didn't need to be there.
another brilliant story and so believable...love the history about El Paso....and she waited to find her soul mate.....is this fiction emulating truth or truth emulating fiction....just one annoying thing is you changed names a couple of times...
