C. Robert Ogren Jr., former vice president of engineering and operations for LIN Television Corp., died May 18 in New Bedford, Mass. He was 59.

He joined LIN in 1990, following a stint at WBAL-TV Baltimore, where he was director of engineering. Besides WBAL-TV, he also worked at WTEV-TV Jacksonville, Fla.; WBZ-TV Boston; and WLNE(TV) New Bedford, Mass., his hometown. Ogren retired from LIN Television last December, citing health reasons.

He also served as chairman for the local chapter of the Society of Broadcast Engineers.

Memorial contributions can be made to the Diabetes Foundation of Rhode Island Inc., 1007 Waterman Ave., East Providence, RI 02914.
