Answer Hi Marty,
You can outline one person with the lariat tool (L) then copy and paste them onto the second image, or you can use the rubber stamp tool (S) to sample the person in one image and clone him/her into the second image.
With either method it is best to create a new layer on your target image so that the additions don't affect the original image on the background. You can go to Layers>Flatten Image when you are done editing so as to combine both layers.
As always, work with copies and save often.
Hope this helps,
