Elvis' fortitude is bred in the bones. His mother was the last of eight children in a Hungarian family, his father the first of nine in a Yugoslav household. They fled communist tanks in the 1950s, landed in Canada, met each other in Toronto and married. Upon the birth of her third child, Irene Stojko happened to be gonzo over Elvis Presley.
