Richard Gladwell

[audio4tv]

From WXXI:

We are deeply saddened to share the news that Richard Gladwell, host
of the national program With Heart & Voice passed away on Thursday
morning, October 15 at 10:25. He was with his wife, granddaughter,
and a dear friend, and died quietly and peacefully.

Richard was diagnosed with brain cancer in June. After surgery was
able to spend time with his extended family, including several weeks
at a lake house in upstate New York. Throughout his illness he was
surrounded by family and friends in his beautiful sunroom looking out
on his beloved garden.

There will be a private funeral for family and friends; a public
celebration of Richard’s life will be held shortly thereafter. More
information about the public celebration will be forthcoming, once
the family has gathered in Rochester, NY, and a date has been chosen.

Please join us in celebrating the life of a wonderful broadcaster and
a lovely human being. He will be missed, but we are all better for
having known Richard Gladwell.

Richard was not just a talented broadcaster who provided the nation with a unique program for hundreds of cities around the country...he was a good friend and true gentleman, and it was a privilege to know and work with him. We will deeply miss him.

For those many thousands of people who enjoyed With Heart and Voice every week, Richard left an extensive library of timeless programming, and they will continue on the air for perhaps years to come as a lasting legacy of his work.
