RIP to the Tiny Tot of the Kilowatt 

 

His daughter, Kelley Clem, said Wander was discussing New York Mets baseball with her just the night before his passing. He died with a Buffalo Bills blanket on his bed, a Mets banner nearby, and Frank Sinatra’s "My Way" playing on his Alexa, which she says he affectionately called "Alaska."

Wander served in the U.S. Navy, producing radio programs for the Veterans Administration hospital system. In 1956, he joined WKBW radio as a news reporter.

God Speed Art. Fond memories of your show when I was a teenager.

I’m amazed how quickly I just ran through every word in his theme song in my mind right now.
