I apologize for ever doubting Meredith's existence. It was the new hometown with every new email that threw me.

Now that Ron, a competitor who could not be mentioned (!!!), is gone, will the Drew & Mike podcast - which has talked about their Buzzboard-related thread - finally acknowledge the phenomenon of the Ron Cameron thread? Along with acknowledging Ron's passing?

With all his talk of echoes, I like to imagine that Ron was a fan of Echo & the Bunnymen.

Shockingly, Ron was a Justin Bieber fan. Or at least he was well aware of him.

Ron always thought it was HILARIOUS when he’d refer to Cleveland Guardians/Indians pitcher Shane Bieber as “Justin Bieber”!!!

Ron always amused himself when he made a cultural reference from the 21st Century.

Thanks for playing Ron's favorite, Patti Page!

Thanks for playing "We Are The Champions." You're doing a fine tribute to Ron Cameron.

Agreed! Now, hope about some Patti Page!

Will Alex & Luke come out of hibernation to reflect here on Ron's passing? It would be nice if they - & Matt, too, could participate in next week's sendoff.

A story I've told before about one of my favorite memories ... from 2014 (so the statute of limitations has long run). Ron had a show on WCAR with but one phone line. But the station did have call waiting. Per usual, there were few callers. To have some (extremely juvenile) fun, whenever there was a...

I heard of Ron's passing during the second intermission of the Red Wings game, Ken Kal and Paul Woods had a few nice things to say about him and then afterwards when Caputo came back on the air a coller phoned in and asked Pat if he had met him and Pat said yes, but didn't add anyting further .What...

Yes, Ron had a work ethic. Nowadays, as he would note, nobody wants to work.

It gives me some comfort thinking that the ghosts of Ron Cameron & Al Capone will be rubbing shoulders for eternity, or for at least as long as the Fenton Hotel remains standing.

I am curious how the media will report this, including the other sports personalities. I would be surprised if there's any notice in the Detroit papers. In Ron's memory, I should add that there likely will not be more than one paper much longer (something he had been saying for YEARS). Maybe Ron's ...

"Talkin' Baseball" My first trip to Tiger Stadium in 1978 was also my first personal encounter with Ron Cameron. Saw him over in the outfield bleachers with one of his friends. Really, very cool memory to share And my first personal encounter with Ron was circa 1974 when I went to Pistons game at C...

The guys from AA and Revolving Door Show will be working with Martin, & Mike from the station, in putting together next week's tribute show. They'll be taking questions from callers, along with airing the "best of" Ron reels.
