ICYMI: Eric Leclerc is Faces Magazine's 2024 Comedian of the Year

Congratulations Eric!

 

From the June 17th Instagram post by Eric Leclerc:

This baby just came in the mail!!! I feel honoured and appreciative to have won Faces Magazine’s comedian of the year 2024. As magicians, we always get a bad rap from comedians because of our use of props on stage. I always thought it was such a silly metric to judge one’s level of funniness. A laugh is a laugh is it not? Well who’s laughing now?! 🏆 Thanks to everyone who voted and has come to see my comedy magic show SMOKUS POCUS in the last 2 years. It’s because of you. Merci! 🔴

Broken wand: John Buitendyk (Arkello the Magician)

Our sincere condolences to John's wife Johanna, his family, and his friends at this difficult time. 

 

From the Wall-Custance Funeral Home:

Buitendyk, Johannes (John)

With many interests, his longest and deepest interest was magic.  For many years, as a side hobby, John performed as “Arkello” the Magician, for kids birthday parties, Corporate family events, at Magic conventions, and as a Guelph Shriner in his earlier years he performed magic and as a clown making balloon animals.   John was a longstanding member of the International Brotherhood of Magicians for over 40 years, and as a member of the Guelph Masonic Lodge and the Kitchener and Hamilton Magic Clubs.

Thank you to the support and efforts of Dr. Madani, Dr. Glick, Dr. Molckovsky and all the support staff and nurses at Grand River Cancer Center, St. Mary’s and Guelph General Hospitals.

Forever in our hearts, he will be dearly missed.

Cremation has taken place, with a memorial service being held on Friday, July 26, 2024
