WIVK personality Ron Cantwell, better known to most of you as “Hoss,” passed away Thursday night 10/15/15 after a brief illness. He was 51. Ron loved his 2 children, and he loved interacting with you when he was on the air at WIVK. Ron also did work at WCRK in Morristown and was a 911 dispatcher there. If you’re so inclined, please keep Ron’s family in your thoughts and prayers. We are sure going to miss him.
