George Duensing, who passed away last October at the age of 85, had been one busy boy in this industry, especially in the realm of machine repair. On occasion he’d fly his own plane to make an out-of-town service call! He did more jobs than a Christmas tree has lights, and worked at a ton of companies as well. Beginning with the old Minthorne Music Seeburg distributorship on L.A.’s Pico Blvd. (“coin machine row”), to his own Newport Balboa Vending & Games and running a Straw Hat pizzacade out in the desert, he packed a lot of living into one life.
You did your man good, Carol. Thanks for including RePlay on his list of friends to receive this impressive keepsake. As it proves, he sure made his mark in life!
