Sad News -- Long term Dallas hobby people
 

I received word while walking around the GTSM show in Irving that both John Marcus (who had been married to National promoter Wanda Marcus) and Jim Kukendall have passed on. Jim K passed on several years ago but promoted shows in the Dallas Fort Worth area. here is a copy of his obit from a few years ago

I could not find an obit for John which mentioned Wanda but I believe he passed on last November as the information seemed to match what I guessed but I did not have those details.

Needless to say, since both men played a role in the Dallas-Fort Worth hobby scene, it is worth this post to remember them.

Both were pioneers and fixtures in Texas card shows. Was a pleasure to have known them.

John, Wanda and Jim were always a pleasure to deal with when we were doing shows for SCD, etc.
