Former Morning Man Red Alix Passes Away

January brought some sad news for long-time Winnipeg radio listeners. Winnipeg radio-legend Red Alix passed away at the Grace Hospital on Tuesday, January 12. He was 83. Red Alex spent 30 years as the host of the morning show on CJOB radio. Many of the volunteers who you hear on CJNU or work behind the scenes at the station had the pleasure of working with Red during his career at CJOB.

Glen Miller was one of those who worked at CJOB during the time that Red Alix was there. He's recorded a two-and-a-half minute audio tribute to Red that includes several short clips from Red's CJOB broadcasts. Click here to listen to it.

CJNU station manager Bill Stewart was also among those who worked with Red. He says that "Red had a style that was all his own". He will be sadly missed.
