Radio Vet Don Brooks has Died

3
59

I get SO much news that I occasionally miss things and I missed this story about a week ago. Don Brooks passed early June 29.  Don was a policeman until WCBM offered him an on air slot in the 70’s. He went on to become a Station Owner, General Manager, Program Director and Jock . Don was G.M. of WWIN-AM & FM before leaving for Atlantic City to buy a station.  When Don retired from radio, several years ago, he and his wife were owner-operators of several stations in New Jersey. He was in the process of looking into other business opportunites at the time of his death. I believe Don was in his early 60’s.
