Sad news about Kenna Joseffy

I know that most of you probably didn't know Kenna, but some probably did so I wanted to pass this along.

Kenna Joseffy passed away yesterday (2/22/15) in her home.

It is really a shame. She was a very neat lady. At least it sounds like she didn't suffer through a long illness.

Kenna and her late husband John were slot machine dealers, collectors, and restorers in Denver.

They were the folks responsible for me getting into the hobby. I met them when I bought my first machine at an auction back in 1984 (had no idea what I had purchased) and they took me under their wings and educated me.

Lots of fond memories being around them in Chicago and also at the Arrington VCA auctions.

R.I.P. Kenna

Thanks for posting the sad news of Kenna's passing, as I hadn't heard anything as yet.
I knew John & Kenna for many years. I also remember John's passing well, as it was the day before Christmas, 12/24/04.
They were: a true Gentleman, and a wonderful Lady. Spent many hours chatting about machines, along with another fine
person, the late Orin Yeager, whom had a booth next to mine, at the Pasadena "Fun Fair", for several years. Also, many
good times at ChicagoLand, and the VCA auctions, when it was owned by the late Roy Arrington.
