In Memory

As you may know, pioneer traffic reporter Marty Ambrose - the man who initiated radio traffic reports in Houston - passed away in June from ALS. He has since been named as an inductee to the Texas Radio Hall of Famm that will happen this November.
 
As a tribute to Marty and his accomplishments this Friday, on what would have been his 70Th birthday, some of the radio stations that carried his reports will dedicate their AM Drive traffic reports to him. Stations include SUNNY 99.1, Talk650 and KUHF - where he worked almost until his death.
Marty was DISH'S teacher when we were a traffic reporter on all 8 Clear Channel stations here in Houston and our Mentor, Texas Radio Hall of Famer Scott Arthur's best buddy. He and Scott were partners on KQUE for 18 years.
He's missed everyday.
God Bless you, Marty.
