I'm sorry to announce the passing of Ken Layton. Ken was an exceptional technician and had an encyclopedic knowledge of 16mm equipment. He will certainly be missed. I have no other information except what's in his obituary, which Justin West forwarded to me.

Ken had a varied and fun-filled (seriously!) career repairing pinball machines, video games, old movie projectors, old radios, and old cameras. He was self-taught: reading books, magazine articles, talking to various people in person and over the phone, and as technology changed, the Internet. Over the years, he became one of the most knowledgeable references for the repairing of arcade and theater projection equipment, and was well known for helping people throughout the United States and around the world with his wisdom and advice.
