CARTOON of the DAY: We'll Miss You Jim!

Friday - December 23
For decades - for most of my adult life - Jim Harper was a part of Detroit radio and a part of all our lives. Harper and St. James, Harper and Gannon, Harper Gannon and You, Jim Harper and the Breakfast Club ... "Harper" was always the constant (and best) element of morning radio around here. But Jim was much more than that.

He was a dedicated supporter and fund raiser for Toys for Tots, the Humane Society and many other organizations in the metro area. And he was a dedicated supporter of all the communities in the metro area, appearing regularly to meet with fans and followers. My favorite appearance by Jim was in the Royal Oak Holiday Magic Parade (full disclosure, 'cause it's my home town).

We all owe Jim a big "Thank You!" for the years he spent lifting our spirits, sharing our lives and making us feel a part of his on-air family. Goodbye, Jim ... we'll miss you every morning.
That's the Point!
