I learned today that a radio icon from my youth passed away last week.  Mr. Joe Lee, ‘the voice’ of KCPX radio news, passed away at the age of 88.  I invite you to read more about his life here and here.  His obituary is here.

I have written about Mr. Lee and his colleagues in AM radio here.  Now that I am grown up, I have realized something…there was and is only one Joe Lee.

I will now dim the “ON AIR” light above the studio door for just a moment to honor the passing of a gentleman and a broadcaster extraordinaire…
