His sons, Igor Kio and Emil Kio, Jr., became famous Soviet magicians as well. Igor took over for his father after his death.
In 1989, a series of stamps were issued by the Soviet Union paying tribute to Soviet Circus performers. One stamp was dedicated to Emil Kio. It contained a scene intended to illustrate one of his illusions, "Cremation", in which Kio would cover his assistant with a cloth and all would be set on fire. The assistant would reappear from a box that had been suspended from the ceiling, in full view of the audience during the entire show.
