CNYradio.com reports the death of Jerry Barsha. http://www.cnyradio.com/2009/09/11/longtime-newsman-jerry-barsha-dies/
Jerry was a long time weekend anchor on WSYR-TV Channel 3 and anchor on WSYR radio. I guess when it became WSTM he became kinda of a trouble shooter reporter.
What a true professional and great guy. I actually was one of his students at O. C. C. What a treat it was to learn from someone who knew and had hands on experience in the business of broadcasting. I ran in to him several times over the years. He always remembered me and was interested in my career. He was pleased that I was one of his students that stuck with it. We broadcasters are all a little poorer today because of his passing.
