Changes

'''Graceland''' is the former residence of [[Elvis Presley]] and is where he is buried, after being moved from Forest Hill Cemetery at 1661 Elvis Presley Blvd due to an unsuccessful break-in by graverobbers.  It is a large white-columned mansion located on 3764 Elvis Presley Boulevard in Memphis, [[Tennessee]] about nine miles away from downtown Memphis and less than four miles north of the [[Mississippi]] border. The mansion (the name of which was given to it by a prior owner who named it for his daughter), Presley's home for much of his life, is designated as a National Historic Landmark. The Elvis Presley estate earns over $40 million and draws over 600,000 tourists yearly, second only to the [[White House]] in number of tourists visiting a private residence, and a record for a deceased entertainer. Tourists are invited to see much of the house and the meditation garden where the family is buried, but the upstairs is reserved for Presley's family.

After Presley died, his father Vernon was responsible for the house. When he died in 1979, Presley's widow Priscilla took over. A CEO, Jack Soden, was responsible for making Graceland a moneymaker, since Prisicilla could not afford the upkeep of the house, which was over $500,000 a year.
