It's been a year now, my friend...I am finally able to put my mind to words. You were a warm, witty, wonderful person and I was privileged to have worked in the same building with you. It has been hard seeing the people that I cherished the most from my time at WTKX/WBOP leave us...Robert, Mrs. T, Lewis, and then you...and by all rights and reasons, I should have been among you. Thank you for your friendship...miss you a lot.

I have known this man most of my life. I remember the free sodas he would give my mom to give to us in the 80's outside of his store. May he rest in peace.

Many of you should also remember that it was WRNE radio that gave us back the legendary Rock! Before it was the other station in town. All of us came back from the shut down of WBOP to the open door of WRNE. Nothing but love made it happen for all of us. Amen.
