RIP - Wesley Robertson

KZFR has lost a friend of the station, Wesley Robertson.

"We have truly lost a one-of-a-kind, larger than life, unique KVMR character and talent." - from KVMR

Wesley Robertson was a DJ at our sister station KVMR, and was involved in a fatal car accident Saturday night. Simple words can't express our shock and sorrow at his loss. We loved Wes and will miss him dearly. Wes was instrumental in the development of KZFR's live broadcasts from the Big Room and he always supported our commitment to live music. Wes was well-known in Northern California as an ambassador for live music and was a fixture at High Sierra, Strawberry and the Celtic Festival. 

The KZFR community offers our love and condolences to his friends and family. R.I.P Wes.
