Today, we remember legendary radio broadcaster, #BradDavis -- who died yesterday at 87 yrs.old. Brad was part of our @WFSBnews family. He started working here back in 1959 & hosted a local music show. But he was the voice behind The @TalkofCT for 40+ years. He will be missed❤️ pic.twitter.com/qov1CVMaYg

#RIP Brad Davis. Last time we talked, he told me he wanted to die at the mic. He damn near did.

Sad to hear about the passing radio icon Brad Davis. I was fortunate to work on the Talk of CT show back in the late 90s with Brad and @DanLovallo, we did weather and sports trivia and laughed a lot. He was gracious in public with his listeners and he championed many causes. RIP
