What a great photo of Ken Stokes and Johnny Johnson. We visited their home many times and each time we were amazed at the quantity and quality of their collection. They shared their knowledge, music and hospitality and now their collection with fellow collectors. Hope to see many friends at the auction.

Thank you Ken and Johnny for great memories.

I remember Ken and Johnny from many years ago when I was a teenager. Whatever happened to them? Are they still among us? They were both incredibly nice!

Kenny is doing fine. Johnny passed away, I guess it's been a couple of years now. Both very good friends. Johnny was one of those people who you just immediately liked, and he in turn was one of those people who just automatically liked everyone. He just enjoyed people. A wonderful person.

Ken and Johnny are good friends. They were always over here for dinner, especially during the holidays. Our family misses Johnny a lot. He and my mother-in-law would sit for ours, just the two of them, talking and reminiscing for hours at our dinners. Kenny still comes over.

Johnny was such a great guy with the worst jokes ever which made them all that much better.

I was and still is a treat to visit their home(s).
