My daughter-in-law, Alex Lane has let me know that Reno, Nevada has lost yet another radio ‘old-timer.’ Alex worked with Dennis Romero as they aired the local daily show, “Gun Talk.”

Dennis was about a month short of his 70th birthday and according to a post on his Facebook page, he passed away January 3, while sitting in his favorite recliner at home. He was one of the leading voices of KCKQ 1180 AM, in the Reno Town Mall.
