RIP Duane Gay

WISN's Duane Gay died yesterday. I didn't know him from his time at WISN in Milwaukee. I remember him from his years at WLUK in Green Bay. He was the anchor in the years when I first started watching the news in the mid- to late-eighties when I was 10-14 years old. He often had dinner with us. Rather, we watched him during dinner. Then, like most Green Bay news people, he moved on.

I didn't hear of him again until we moved back to Wisconsin and I saw one of his stories about his battle with cancer. I was touched by how willing he was to share his personal struggles with the disease and by his candor.

Duane Gay touched a lot of lives. He will be missed.
