Randy Black was a 19-year-old rookie disc jockey when he met Bobby Q. Day, the legendary local radio personality. He remembers the funny stories and crazy times the two shared doing the late-night and overnight shifts at WDXB on Dodds Avenue back in 1983.
Carole Ann White remembers Bobby as Bobby White, her husband for the last three years. The two spent nearly every waking moment talking, surfing the Internet, listening to talk radio — never music radio — or listening to his vinyl record collection. He listened to Sinatra, Bennett, Martin and Sammy Davis Jr., she said.
“Never the blues, and he could never enjoy CDs,” she said.
Bobby Q. Day died Saturday with his wife at his side.
Both Black and White talked this week about how much they loved Bobby.
