Radio Legend, Hot Air Balloon Enthusiast, & Best Friend to Many Dies in Car Crash


Tom McClendon, former radio DJ and Russell County native died as the result of a car crash on Highway 127 in Casey County on Monday evening. He was a good friend to many, a kind soul who loved his family, his friends, radio, and hot air balloons. You could put a microphone in front of Tom and he could talk for hours. He knew a lot about a little bit of everything.


Tom had one of the best personalities on & off air. Ask anyone who knew Tom and it doesn’t take you long to realize how well respected he was. Pre-pandemic, Tom would swing by the WAVE and visit for hours. He would sit in Jan’s office and you could hear his laugh all over the building. The last time I saw Tom was at Kroger’s in R.S. and I’m pretty certain he asked if I was keeping Larry Smith straight, and of course he already knew the answer to that lol.

 
I never worked with Tom, but felt like I’d known him his entire life, because that’s how he made you feel. I certainly enjoyed his old radio stories (and he had lots of them)!  
 
R.I.P. Tom McClendon. As they say: "Old radio dJ’s don’t die, they just fade away."
