RIP Bob Bittner

[Sean Smyth]

RIP.

Even though I ended up not pursuing broadcasting, Bob gave me a chance when
I was a kid — running the board at 16 or 17 while I also posted stupid
things on this mailing list. I goofed up a bunch, but he kept me around.
Few others would’ve dealt with me, but Bob did, for an extended period of
time. I always meant to send him a note telling him how appreciative I was
— I didn’t. He was a good man and an asset to the industry. I hope WJIB and
his other stations continue on in some form.

Thanks for posting, Kevin, otherwise I wouldn’t have seen this.
