Remembering Chris Lash

November 8, 2021 Off By Eric O'Brien

I met Chris Lash on February 21, 1992 as a 15-year-old touring the WSHH/WJAS studios. As I remember Dan Dunlap handed the touring duties over to Chris so that he could go on the air. So I got to sit in on some production work he was doing with one of the other staffers. After she was done (and supposedly in record time) Chris told me to go up to the mic and try a script. The result of it is here.

Chris Lash – “WHEN I HAD HAIR!” he would say – on 2/21/92 in the WSHH production studio mixing a spot together.

I am sorry to report that Chris passed away Sunday night after a brief illness on top of long-time health issues. He led a great life owning and selling stations and even did a few years duty at Gobbler’s Knob on February 2! Great guy, we will miss him.

As we mentioned the other day, Chris had asked that you help his wife, Kathy, with a GoFundMe fundraiser which will help pay for some of his healthcare bills over the last few weeks.

Meanwhile, please share your stories and memories of Chris. It seems the more people I meet, the more people I find knew him. Please share your stories in the comments here on the website.
