Longtime collector, Banzai member, shoot-out attendee, and friend; Howard Johnson passed away May 3rd. Howard had been battling cancer for some time but still managed to hold it at bay for several years and make it down to the shootout with his lovely wife. It was a privilege to know him and to get to spend time with he and his family. He will be missed.

BANZAI Old Friend!

Howard Johnson
b. Aug 6, 1927
d. May 3, 2009

I didn't pay to much for that old Arisaka, I just bought it a little bit too soon!

I met him there, a very nice person. Marjory spent a lot of time talking with him and his wife. Wish I had too, but I was busy looking. riceone
