“Over 40 years in radio, you meet many different people and even though their names may not appear here, believe me, I remember you and I have a few stories about you. I want to wish all the best to everyone I have ever worked with and give a shout out to the early years of mine here in Parry Sound. Jennifer Ashawasegai (Pereira), James “Jimmy” King, Zane Smith, one of the most entrepreneurial salesmen I ever knew, Lindsay Godin, and the late Ron Beckett. Everyone who knew Ron, knows exactly about Ron.
I would also like to send a kudos out to Brian Prokopec, one of the most intelligent men I have ever met.
Most recently, we were joined by Kathy Jennings, on staff.
I know these plans were not in the works but she is going to be around for a long time. I am happy that you are enjoying her. Please continue to show her your full support.”
In lieu of flowers, Donations to the West Parry Sound Hospital Foundation or a charity of your choice would be appreciated.
