That's me, David Darling, the Program Director of Lee Gray.Com. I'm the older of Lee's two sons and I am currently the Operations Manager for News/Talk 660 K-SKY, and KWRD / KPXI 100.7 FM in Dallas and Tyler, Texas.
I am always looking for Lee Gray airchecks, information, pictures, or any corrections to the stories that are already here. After all, the majority of the events on this website took place before I was born. I appreciate the time and effort of everyone involved with making this website possible, especially John Quincy and our friends at 1080 WKLO.Com and at 79 WAKY.Com.
