His name was Jim Craig and according to an obit in Broadcast Dialogue, he squeezed a lot into his professional career. He worked at CKCB Collingwood, CJOY in Guelph, CKKW and CHYM in Kitchener and even hosted the local version of "Bowling for Dollars" on CKCO-TV.
He also spent time on air at CJBK and CKSL, as well at CFPL-TV in London, worked at the CBC and taught at Fanshawe, Conestoga and Seneca Colleges.
You wonder where he found the time. Sadly, he ran out of it and passed away at 78.

Jim hired the original on-air staff and others at Wave Smooth Jazz 94.7 in Hamilton. He loved what he did and the people he did it with.

Jim had the gift of the gab, a true Irishman and a true gentleman. I worked with him in London and at Seneca and always enjoyed his company...and his stories!
