| Greg Korin ('57-'25) |
No cause of death has been released, though friends say he had been deeply grieving the March 28, 2025, death of his wife, Kerri McInally Korin.
He served as a host and personality at the following stations:
- WVIA (Scranton/Wilkes-Barre public radio, NPR affiliate)
- WTLQ (Scranton-area station, formerly known as Q92, focused on adult contemporary and talk)
- WARM (Scranton AM 590, a historic news-talk and sports station)
He also worked at additional stations nationwide
Best known in NEPA for creating the viral YouTube hit “Heynabonics” and decades of stand-up, theater, and radio work, Korin spent the last decade starring in Evil Dead: The Musical on the Las Vegas Strip. Weeks before his death, he announced a new role in the upcoming Universal Horror Unleashed Vegas production.
A GoFundMe launched by his daughter to cover final expenses has received widespread support from fans and colleagues. A private memorial is planned; details of any public celebration of life have not yet been announced.
Tributes poured in across social media, with fellow entertainers calling him a “genius,” a “legend,” and “the funniest man in the room who made everyone feel like a friend.” Many noted he is now reunited with Kerri, “entertaining the angels.”
Born October 19, 1957, in Great Falls, Montana, Korin also served on the SAG-AFTRA board and had national credits as an actor and producer.
