Radio Online is saddened to report the death of Robert "Bob" Triplett who died this past Sunday at the VA Medical Center in Chillicothe, Ohio. He was 97.

A life-long resident of Ohio, Bob had a multitude of accomplishments in his life. He was the first high school athlete to run the mile in under 5 minutes and was a Golden Glove boxer. Bob was a U.S. Army Air Corps veteran. During World War II, he trained pilots in the use of radar on combat missions. He studied to become a broadcast engineer and was General Manager of WKOV in Wellston, Ohio. In 1972, he and his brother, Wendell, formed Triplett Broadcasting Company, owning and operating several radio stations throughout Ohio and Kentucky. Bob built several of these properties and managed them as well.
