Such a nice guy. Talked to him many times when he came to Trump Plaza when I worked there. Always seemed in a good mood and he would just about shake your arm off with his more than enthusiastic hand shake. He will be missed.

I met him once in 1971 or 72.
Our high school drama club went to Pittsburgh to see his fabulous show. It remains to this day one of the best performances of any kind I have ever seen.
He posed for a picture with our group of students and he had his arm around me as I was near the center.
I'll always remember his show and my brief meeting with The Amazing Kreskin, who absolutely, positively lived up to his name!
