"I will miss my wonderful KLH listeners more than words can say," Mee wrote. "Whatever my future holds, I promise to continue to be a voice for animals & animal shelters/rescues, love music and live my life with compassion and kindness."
“To protect the privacy of our employees we do not discuss internal matters, suffice to say this year has presented unprecedented challenges," Bob Bellini, vice president and general manager of WKLH parent company the Milwaukee Radio Group, wrote in a statement to the Journal Sentinel.
"We extend our deepest thanks and appreciation for Marilynn’s contributions to her listeners and the Milwaukee Radio Group over the years.”
Mee first found listeners in the Milwaukee radio market as news director and morning show co-host for WQFM-FM (93.3) in the '80s. She was with the hard rock station known as "Lazer 103" from its inception in 1987, serving as mid-day host, and beginning in 1998, music director. When Lazer was rebranded as "102.9 The Hog" in 2005, Mee moved over to mid-day hosting at WKLH.
In July, Mee was inducted into the Wisconsin Area Music Industry's inaugural Wall of Fame class, a new recognition highlighting music industry veterans in the state who are not musicians themselves.
