NYC Radio: WOR's John Gambling Signs-Off

John Gambling
John R. Gambling wrapped up the world’s longest-running family radio dynasty Friday with a flood of mutual admiration, a strong trickle of tears and the Roy Rogers/Dale Evans classic, “Happy Trails to You.”

His final WOR show, which ends 88 years for the Gambling family on New York morning radio, was upbeat and often sentimental.

According to The NY Daily News, Gambling, 63, had his wife, Wendy, and three sons in the studio, underscoring repeated references to the show as a “family” that also included his staff, advertisers and listeners.
