Some great OB stories, but most I cannot tell.SteveGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16820122768320766002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6766534511299368622.post-31891490158102387062008-02-10T08:37:00.000-06:002008-02-10T08:37:00.000-06:00I am sorry to hear of your loss.

I wish I had known your father was still alive back then, I would have loved to have talked to him.<BR/><BR/>I know this is a bad time to ask, but if, at some point down the road, some family member could take some time to share some of what your father related, I'd be very happy to hear it. Just contact me by e-mail on the Profile page.<BR/><BR/>I lost my own father just a few years ago and I know what you're going through. May you find comfort and solace in the memories of so many good years and in celebrating his life. God be with you.Brucehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02689118444867837021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6766534511299368622.post-1812262764772254892008-02-09T00:10:00.000-06:002008-02-09T00:10:00.000-06:00My father was O.B. Johnson and the radio engineer ...My father was O.B. Johnson and the radio engineer at KTHT who put the first FM station in Texas on the air. He passed away on 2/3/08 and his funeral was today. <BR/><BR/>If you take a look at the Houston Chronicle Obituaries of 2/7/08, you will see dad's. In addition, The Chronicle ran a feature obituary on him in today's paper - 2/8/08. Take a look!<BR/><BR/>I'm writing to you because in order for them to publish the info regarding the FM station, The Chronicle had to have a date and place. Dad had told us the story many times, but we didn't know the date. During our search for this info, we came across your blog.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for publishing this. May I ask you what made you do this research in January of 2008? Was it just so we would have the facts to back up our story about our dad?<BR/><BR/>Janan KashUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01328574113947273566noreply@blogger.com
