R.I.P. Bob Wormington

Over the weekend, Bob Wormington passed away. You may not have heard his name before but those in broadcasting have. He was a pioneer in television, working for WDAF in the fifties and then starting an independent station, KBMA TV 41. Most of the television I watched growing up was on TV 41. Bob was family and opened his home to us every year at Christmas to spend time with cousins I wouldn’t have known otherwise. Not many know that he was a pilot and owned a home in Ireland that he also opened up to us every time we made a trip back to the old sod. My thoughts go out to his incredible wife, Kareen, and the rest of his family and mine.

The world is a better place because of the legacy of openness, generosity, and love left by Bob Wormington.
