R.I.P., Edward Antonitis
September 4, 2007

Our sincere condolences to KRON president/G.M. Mark Antonitis, who lost his father last week. Mark recalls Edward Antonitis as a "proud American"--a former Army Ranger who stormed the beach in Normandy and liked to joke that he single-handedly freed the French--"and regretted it ever since." 

Mark says he saw his dad off the way anyone would want to--all the children around, lots and lots of wine, and endless reminiscing.
