R.I.P. AMAZING KRESKIN (GEORGE JOSEPH KRESGE JR.)

 

You were always at the top of your game with your mentalist prowess, entertaining legions of fans for decades, which included a special stint at the company where my father worked: a moment that has become fond, family lore. 

You never pretended to be the "real" thing, but rather like Houdini, a performer of high, extraordinary skill, who cautioned against those who claimed to be genuine. 

For the many television appearances and good-natured trickery you gave us, Mr. Kreskin, you have our undying thanks, as you leave a legacy that will inspire others to razzle and dazzle--and all in the most amazing of ways.
