DANNY MACK MCWILLIAMS [GM KRNH FM Country (The Ranch 92.3)] (Kerrville, TX)<\/strong> Subject: Michelle Lee-Outlaw. Jim, I was saddened to hear of the passing of one of the most talented radio people I have ever had the pleasure to work with Michelle Lee-Outlaw. Michelle came to work for K-99 Radio in Corpus Christi, I believe, in 1995. She had been in Abilene, where she was a ratings monster, on KEAN. She continued her midday dominance at K-99. Her ratings were unbelievable, nobody could touch them. I was lucky enough to follow her midday show, as afternoon host, and I know, without a doubt, the ratings success I enjoyed was due to her dominance and handing off her incredibly strong audience to me, each afternoon. What a sweet lady, she was always genuinely happy and always had a smile on her face. The listeners loved her, as did everyone on our team. I will always remember her saying \u201cit\u2019s me, it\u2019s me, it\u2019s Mi-shelly-lee,\u201d when she came on during a live remote broadcast. I thought I would play off that one day when I was on the road and when she handed off to me I said, \u201cI\u2019m back, I\u2019m back, it\u2019s Danny Mack.\u201d She thought that was so funny and we both laughed about it. That smile and laugh, I will always cherish. It\u2019s not many talents who are the whole package, talent, kindness, love and respect, but Michelle certainly was one of them and she will be missed. \u201cDanny Mack\u201d McWilliams<\/em><\/p>\n

JAY WALKER [CBS Radio Dallas\/KJKK FM\/Infinity KTSA-550\/KTFM FM\/Jay Walker Prod] (Dallas-McKinney, TX)<\/strong> Jim Now that there are no conventions like Gavin, or Radio and Records, we don\u2019t have an opportunity to gather and socialize anymore. Once radio was blown up, most of us were scattered to the wind as well which makes it hard to keep track of \u201cWho is Where\u201d\u2026 But we sure had some good times back then, at least from what I remember HAHA\u2026 Jay<\/em><\/p>\n
