Let's Talk About Obituaries

[lglavin@lycosmail.com]

Today's Globe (01/13/00) contained a funeral notice for
someone named Thomas M. Hickey who died at age 88.
He was described as an Irish tenor who hosted a show
on WRKO in the 30's and 40's.  Hmmmmm.  There MIGHT
have been a WRKO then somewhere (there was a KRKO in
Everett, Washington) but hereabouts the precusor to
today's AM 680 was WNAC then at 1260.  Did Clea or
Susan write this obit?  speaking of Clea, she also
provided a kind of obit for WNRB today, describing it
as defunct.  There's a grain of truth there, but
folks in Belmont are probably still picking it up
on their toasters.  I wonder if there will be a 
correction tomorrow?

(very much alive still)
