Some folks went off to bigger and better things....as WCCM was a good
small-market springboard for some.

Steve Holman is doing Atlanta(?) play-by-play...and I would occaisionally
hear him on the Mutual Broiadcasting System doing sports.

Jim Bartlett did news on Ch 9 for a time (I believe he passed away, no?)

Ed Colman went off to WFAN to do midday talk...is he still there?

Eddie B. Baker...well he just went off to be Eddie B. Baker.

Lou Marcel (St. Onge) went off to do early evenings at WBZ....and was struck
with cancer shortly after landing the "big gig".

Dick Uliano went off to work for AP...and I would hear him on the AP Radio
Network.

Also, he married Louise Schaivone...who also did some network reporting.

Dennis Burke went off to work at WMEX (1510) and WBZ...but then moved off to
Pa(?) and we never heard from him again.

And let's not forget Bill Stundza, Anne McCullogh, Dave Iseman, Cary
Pahigian, Dan Roache...and Glen Spatola who was on the air with two air
names during his stint at the Big 8.

Anyone have any updates on any of these folks?
