Jay Daniels |
The Scranton Times reports Longaven, best known by his on-air name of Jay Daniels, co-hosted the morning show on radio station WEZX/Rock 107 for a quarter-century as part of the team of Daniels & Webster.
He died Sunday afternoon at the Golden LivingCenter-East Mountain in Wilkes-Barre after a lengthy illness. He was 61. His death was confirmed by Susan Kolesar, a long-time friend.
Mr. Longaven joined Rock 107, which is owned by Times-Shamrock Communications, which also owns The Times-Tribune, in January 1985.
As Jay Daniels, he hosted the morning show solo until the following March. That is when he was joined by John Gasper, who went by the on-air name John Webster, and “Daniels & Webster” was born.
The pair co-hosted the show through March 2010, when Mr. Gasper resigned.
In July 2010, Mr. Longaven became the host of Rock 107’s midday slot. He continued to work with Times-Shamrock until April 2011.
