Dee met Wendy on July 4, 1970, when she and her sisters were visiting inTitusville, FL. They attended the local gathering where Dee was lead singer in a band. Dee says, "Wendy fell madly in love with me at first sight." (that's my story!). They were married two months later, September 6, 1970.
Dee was born and raised in rural, WVa, and moved to Florida in 1959. His record collection began with his mother, who began hers, while she was a teenager. What began with a few 78's, he kept his early LP's and the library has grown to well over 7000 pristine records, not including the many CD's, and other music memorabilia he has acquired over the last fifty years.
Now retired and housing his music in a warehouse, he and Wendy now operate The Jubilee Collection, offering the many items he has enjoyed for so many years.
Dee opened the ebay store in April 2004, and just recently, Wendy has joined him in this operation.
Both now retired, they have embarked upon an endeavor to present this pristine collection to the many enthusiasts who like, them, have a passion for great music.
As you know, vinyl is making a great comback, and technology has allowed Dee to transfer many to wave edit files, thereby allowing him to offer these wonderful recordings to the ebay world.
Dee and Wendy still reside in Titusville, where Wendy retired after more than thirty years with Belk's. Dee retired in 2005,after more than thirty years in sales and marketing. However,Dee has always stayed involved in music and traveled on weekends singing gospel music across the US. He retired from the road in February, 2010.
They enjoy their grandchildren and family along with "Kong", their Coton de Tulear.
Dee and Wendy hosted a weekly radio program from 1988, to February 2011. Father time caught up with Dee and he has recently battled some health issues, but doing well enough to re-open the store after temporarily closing in May.
Soon the store will display listings of more than 2000.
feel free to send your wish list, especially during this relisiting period and we will get your items listed promply. also contact Dee or Wendy at [email protected].
THANKS, and HAPPY EBAYing!
DEE AND WENDY
