So sad to learn of the passing of Don Daynard. I was so fortunate to have learned from him when I got to produce his show at CHFI. He and Erin Davis were my radio school. He had such a way to connect with the listener.He was always looking for the laugh. I learned so much just from being in the studio with him. Got to hang out with him and his very close gang some weekends up in Oliphant too.He got a kick out of how young I was and that I hadn’t heard his jokes before. He used to say “I have ties older than you.” Thanks for the laughs.“…And if you’re driving, watch out for the other guy”Rest In Peace Daz!I have more photos but this one makes me laugh. Mike Marshall also in the pic!

So sorry to hear this.  I was a production op at CHFI and Ben gave me the position of tech producer of Chronicle, the noon news program.  I learned many things working with Ben.  One was to never let the facts get in the way of a good story! Joking of course and the other was to 'consider the source'.  On some Mondays he would bring in hot bagels straight from Montreal.  
He was a good, gentle and funny man.  R.I.P and my condolences.

So sorry to hear about Mike Filey. I worked with him when he was a contributor on Don and Erin’s show at CHFI and he wrote a nice article on my grandfather who brought back ashes of an unknown soldier from WWII.
R. I.P Mike. He was a very nice and knowledgeable man and historian.
