It is with great sadness that we note the passing of George Libricz Senior. George volunteered for WDIY for many years as board host most notably for Weekend Edition Saturday and Car Talk. His unique on air sound and good humor was loved by many including his weekly sign off "I'll be back!"
The sign off included a woman's name rotated alphabetically over time. "Okay so far" was his habitual response to how are you? George served the country during WWII preparing aircraft on the West coast for combat missions in the Pacific Theatre. He also walked the rails locally to make sure they were safe for trains. We all have fond memories of his time with WDIY and send our best wishes to the family.
