In a rock-radio era when the great disc jockeys could become iconic local tastemakers, Jerry Lubin was a bona fide star.
Lubin, a pioneer of underground radio best known for his years at Detroit’s freeform WABX-FM, died Thursday morning in Los Angeles. He was 80.
Lubin had been hospitalized since Jan. 25 with COVID-19, his son Ethan Lubin told the Free Press, although a cause of death has not yet been officially declared.
The Detroit native and Mumford High School graduate made his name as one of the progressive station’s “Air Aces” from 1968 through the early 70s, part of a local radio career that included stints at WRIF-FM, WWWW-FM and again at WABX, before wrapping up at WLLZ-FM in the 1980s.
Letter to the Editor: DAR group gives thanks after wreath event
The Alliance Review
To the Editor:
On Dec. 19, the Jane Bain Alliance Chapter of the National Society Daughters of American Revolution took part in a national event in which wreaths were placed on the graves of fallen veterans.
As part of the Wreaths Across America effort, with the generosity of business and individual sponsors, 170 wreaths were laid on veteran’s graves.
A ceremony before the wreath-laying included the Marlboro Volunteers providing a 21-gun salute and bugler Dan Carlisle. Beth Zbasnik managed the placement of wreaths.
The Jain Bain Alliance Chapter of NSDAR gives its thanks to Jen Baxter, office manager, Alliance Parks & Rec/Alliance City Cemetery, and Mitch Kirby, cemetery foreman, for their help in making this first event a memorable occasion.
