It is with great sadness that I pass along word of the death of Gary James Tidwell.
He went by the name Gary James over his 40 plus years in TV, and he is remembered for being one of the creators of The Eyes of Texas -- KPRC TV's long-running award-winning magazine show about Texas and Texas history.
Gary was hired by the legendary Ray Miller in 1961, and for many years he was part of the finest television news crew ever assembled in this part of the country. He was executive producer of EOT for more than 20 years until they all retired from TV. Here's his obit in today's Houston Chronicle.
