The Modesto Radio Museum presents stories, tales, and tributes to local area broadcasters, engineers, newscasters, and personalities. They were respected, and loved. May they always be remembered.
Note: The names in blue are linked to obituaries/tributes which you can reach by clicking on them. We do have listed individuals for whom we do not have obituaries or information available for a post. If you have information for a person listed here we will be very happy to include it in the Radio Museum’s TRIBUTE page. Thank you.
