So sad to hear of Margaret’s passing. My condolences to family and friends. If anyone has tapes of her that you’d like posted, I’ll be happy to put them up on the site and you may, of course, link to them any way you like.

Speaking of Margaret and Steve O’Brian…I have a demo of a show they were trying to syndicate called “Dear Margaret & Steve”…solving lister letters from the man and woman points of view.

Also Margaret’s solo show called “Tidbits”.

The date of these shows are dated spring 1986. Boy do I feel old.

Margaret’s retired — but never retiring — and you’re right: great to have a cuppa with. Even better, a martini. I’m the guy she sailed off into the sunset with — lucky me — and sail we did: all over the Chesapeake and all over LI Sound plus Newport, Buzzards Bay, out to Martha’s Vineyard. She’s the best foredeck(wo)man I ever met.

Glad you posted this. Makes me want to dig out her tapes from back when. Speaking of which, we still smile over the YNY Walkathon when Margaret wound up signing autographs next to Wille Mays! Quite abashed, she asked for his. Quite chivalrously, he asked for hers.

Thanx for the visit to nostalgia lane and for your nice sentiments.

What a refreshing air talent. She sounds like the kind of woman you’d not only want to listen to on the radio, but you’d like to sit and have a cup of coffee with. Very nice. Where is Margaret Jones today?
