Well known consultant and longtime programmer Greg Gillispie announces his retirement due to health issues. Gillispie, a 36 year media veteran, has been diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. Greg has been battling the tumor for two years, while working at XM Radio and consulting radio stations on Programming.
Greg programmed radio stations in markets as large as Washington, DC and Pittsburgh as well as “touched” hundreds of Rock stations in 46 states during his time with Burkhart Abrams, Burkhart Douglas and later as President of the Rock division for McVay Media.
Gillispie is hopeful that with prayer and medical attention he will be able to return to work. He remains positive and is grateful to everyone who has been supportive to him, his wife Cathie and daughter Sara.
Radio broadcasters Mike McVay, Kent Burkhart, Lee Abrams and Dwight Douglas have joined forces with music consultants Neil Lasher and George Cappellini to create a fund raiser to honor and assist Greg during this trying time.
To participate as a member of the formal planning committee, contact Mike@mcvaymedia.com, George@gcapprocks.com or Neil.lasher@sonyatv.com
