John King has died

He'll be missed...
 
He left quite a legacy and some big shoes to fill. 55 is much too young.

A titan falls. My heart and prayers go out to his family and loved ones.
 
He was only 55? Way to young to pass away. Rest in peace John King.
 
Rest in Peace, John. I saw him at the Museum of Making Music. John was a ukulele historian and a jazz player. I remember the small rubber mat he'd place between his torso and the ukulele to keep it from moving while he was playing his lighting fast chord changes. Ric
 
John King is the reason I play the ukulele, I am just floored, little to misty eyed to form a response.

If anybody knows if they are collecting money for his charities or the family pass it along, I will do what I can.
 
What a tremendous loss. I am stunned and deeply saddened. God's peace be with his family, friends and all those who mourn his death.
