Jim Robey Remembered

May 31st, 2015 by WCBC Radio

Sunday marks the 10th anniversary of the death of WCBC's Jim Robey.  JR, as he was known to friends and acquaitances, was the station manager and had been a staple on Cumberland radio for 40 years, with nearly 30 at WCBC, when he passed.

Jim Robey immersed himself in the community and helped several causes raise hundreds of thousands of dollars over his career.  That he was a friend to all may approach being an understatement.

WCBC continues to honor the memory of JR with the Jim Robey scholarship at Allegany College of Maryland, and has named the Classic Hits 107 studios in his honor.
