This will be like loosing an old friend. I was impressed how Mr. Mason has recently improved programming like the gardening program Saturday mornings & the Yamhill County Histories & Mysteries Sunday evenings. Also, what a shame to loose local sports. I'm not sure that everyone truly realizes what a great asset to our county we are loosing. This is sad news for it's listeners & also for Stella & Lars. You will be missed.
