Walt Bodine has died
http://www.kctv5.com/story/21778983/...lt-bodine-dies
KANSAS CITY, MO (KCTV) - Legendary Kansas City broadcaster Walt Bodine died Sunday, according to reports. He was 92. Bodine spent 29 years at KCUR, but he wasn't just a radio personality. He believed in the work of public radio and informed Kansas Citians for more than 72 years. After starting as a TV reporter, Bodine landed in radio and eventually became the host of The Walt Bodine Show. His final broadcast was April 27, 2012. Russ Simmons, a movie critic who worked with Bodine for years, said Bodine's greatest asset was his empathy. "He had a connection with people and that's what I've learned from Walt is to be open with people and be empathetic so he could have that impact on people," Simmons said. Bodine began his radio broadcasting career in 1940 at KDRO in Sedalia, MO. In 1947, Bodine moved to Kansas City where he would remain for 65 years. But perhaps Bodine's weekly sign off will leave the most lasting impact: "Thank you very, very much for listening. Thank you very much for all you do for KCUR." Bodine received several awards, including the Kansas City Spirit Award in 1987 and the Outstanding Kansas Citian of the Year in 1990. Copyright 2013 KCTV (Meredith Corp.) All rights reserved. |
