R.I.P.: PA Radio PD/Host Keith Alan Austin

Keith A. Amolsch, known as Keith Alan Austin,  program director and radio personality for the Allegheny News Talk Sports Network, died Sunday at Meadville Medical Center.

He was 59, according to meadvilletribune.com.

“He was widely known and widely liked,” said Kathy Roae, regional Blood Services representative for the American Red Cross, who fondly remembered calling into his morning show heard locally on WMGW 1490 AM every Tuesday morning. “I looked forward to that every week. His sense of humor was just fabulous. I am going to miss him so much.”

Gary Clark, spokesperson for the Department of Environmental Protection’s Meadville regional office, said he and Amolsch had met in high school and later worked together in the radio business for at least six years beween the late 1980s and late ’90s.

He recalled Amolsch as a superbly professional radio personality who harbored a kind personality out of the station as well.
