WHKP’s News & PD/ Larry Freeman stepped into his eternal home earlier this afternoon. This great man was not only a phenomenal broadcaster, but a friend, mentor, and a true example of perseverance in the industry. He will be forever missed.
WHKP'S Tyler Sams reflects on Larry, and the time he spent working with him:
I am incredibly grateful for the years we worked alongside each other. From the late night events coverage, to going out, and chasing stories, from editing, and script writing, Larry was always there to be an encouragement no matter what we were facing as broadcasters at the present time.
Larry Freeman’s legacy will live on, in the building of WHKP, and the “Real Country” studios for years to come. Even though I’m sad, here, I’m also completely overjoyed for my friend, mentor, and PD for so many years, that he is no longer suffering, or in pain. Rest In Peace my friend...until I see you again!!!! You will be greatly missed!!! Please pray for his lovely wife, Karen, and others as they endure this difficult time!
Arrangements will be made at a later time.
