Did anyone know Bob Straczek?

Saw an ad in the Radio Ink email for a man advertising his skills -- and clicked on the ad. Saw a bio of an interesting man, including a stint where he mentioned he launched a station for the Clear Lake area. I suspected that was the "STAR 101.5" incarnation ... and sent a note to ask him about that and his history.

Didn't get an answer...and read today he died in his sleep the evening I sent the note.

Hope the job search and the death were not related as I hate to see this business chew people up like that. Did anyone know Bob and did you know if he was involved with that station ... or was it perhaps the classical one that is licensed to Seabrook?

Thanks!....
 
I new Bob, Went to Tyler Longview after leaving Houston and then back up North to his home and then passed away

So he lists Clear Lake station launch in his bio. Which station(s) was he involved with ... and do you remember a time frame? Sad to see someone leave when they still have so much passion for wanting to continue their career.
 
Bob was a very upbeat and great guy. He accomplished alot in his life. I am truly touched that my dad could reach people in the ways that he did. Thank you for all of the great comments. I know he would have really appreciated your interest and would have loved to talk to you.
