42-year-old Elvis Presley died at his Graceland mansion in Memphis, Tennessee. Presley's girlfriend, Ginger Alden awoke in the afternoon and noticed that he was not in bed and found him lying on the floor of the bathroom. He was rushed to Baptist Hospital where he was pronounced dead at 3:30 p.m. After an examination it was revealed that Presley's body contained butabarbital, codeine, morphine, pentobarbital, Placidyl, Quaalude, Valium and Valmid. It had been five years since Presley had a US Top Ten hit with the #2 song, "Burning Love". His last US #1 was 1969's "Suspicious Minds". He left an estate valued at 4.9 million dollars, which by 1993 had grown to over 50 million. In his last conversation with Ginger Alden, he told her "I'm going to the bathroom to read." When she cautioned him not to fall asleep in there, his final words were, "Okay, I won't."
