AARON S. SHEPARD

I just discovered that Aaron has passed away. Had the honor of working with Aaron when Capital Cities owned WTEN-TV/WROW-AM/FM, Albany. My first day at work, was booth announcing at WTEN-TV, while Aaron that morning was in the both stations newsroom preparing WROW newscasts. He was very welcoming and helped me get settled in. Kathy and I found him to be a very gracious gentleman.

So sorry to hear of Arnie's passing. He and I worked together at WROW in the 70s and were good friends till work took me out of town. We spent many hours together listening to Tony Bennett and going on photography adventures. He took me to the family summer home in Hull a couple of times. We regained contact and reconnected a bit a few years ago. His professionalism was much admired, and his kindness, generosity and friendship were a great gift.

So sorry for your loss. Arnie would often frequent the Hull Public Library to use the computers over the summer. I have fond memories of him. Best- Ann Selig

Consummate broadcast journalist, communicator and all-around good guy was Aaron. A gentleman of the first rank. Extremely sorry for your loss and that of a friend.
