CLEAR CHANNEL/LIMA, OH is mourning the passing of Rock WZRX (X107-5) midday rocker JOE "BONG BOY" MAKELY following a battle with cancer. JOE, who also worked for ALLEN CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTE in LIMA, was an aspiring stand-up comedian and a veteran of the first Gulf War. MAKELY is survived by a wife and young son.
Funeral arrangements are pending, but a fund has been set up at SUPERIOR FEDERAL CREDIT UNION in LIMA to assist the family. For more info on the fund, contact WZRX PD ERIC MICHAELS at ericmichaels@clearchannel.com. MICHAELS has also planned a "BONG BOY VAN HALEN MEMORIAL WEEKEND" this coming weekend in honor of MAKELY.
