Chronicle: Roger Ramsey
Chronicle: Texas Radio Hall of Famer Roger Ramsey Corkill died suddenly last week, according to a social media post from his son, Nick, who wrote, "He lived a full and beautiful life, what a remarkable run it was." After working radio jobs in Corpus Christi and Virgina Beach – and as a TV weather forecaster – he transitioned to record promotion, first with Mercury, then MCA, where he was Southwest Regional Dir./Promotion from 1979-1998 before launching Roger Ramsey Promotions.
