“Grand Old Man of Radio,” Joe Campbell, Could Use New Year’s Cheer
Joe Campbell, Oneonta's very own "Grand Old Man of Radio," could use a little cheer this New Year's weekend. Joe is recovering from an illness and would greatly like to hear from his many friends and radio fans from over the years.
Joe was heard on the air at WDOS for a historic 50-year radio broadcasting career. His Saturday morning program of Big Band Music, "The Sentimental Journey," is legendary in our area. Joe was also a longtime Oneonta educator and mentor to many youth over his decades-long teaching career.
Joe was many things to many people in our Oneonta area .But for me he will always be one thing...my radio hero.
We encourage you to drop a card to Joe to cheer up his start of 2019. He is loved by many.
