James A. McGaw

I only knew him being on the radio. Loved his voice & his laugh!! I listened to 94.9 radio station alot. He had a great radio voice! He was just a great guy on the radio! I couldn't believe it when I heard it on TV that he died. I thought who could possibly take his place on the radio that would be as good as he was?? I still really miss hearing his voice!
