IN MEMORY. DETROIT RADIO MOURNS PASSING OF RON ROSE

_______________

Our father, Ron Rose, passed away earlier this week. He leaves behind five grandchildren, three children, his wife Carla, beloved friends, and countless stories we feel fortunate to have.

His career spanned six decades, starting in Detroit on the radio as a Disc Jockey, founding his recording studio, Ron Rose Milagro, and evolving into a professional voiceover talent that took him to New York and put his voice on TV, radio and movie trailers – too many to mention here.

But so many that no matter where we were, as kids, we would frequently hear him on the radio or TV. It was more than cool.

The studio grew into one of the premiere facilities in the nation, evolving and expanding. Even while it changed, quite a few things always stayed the same:

He threw epic holiday parties

Sessions always ended with a cocktail

Clients became friends

Jokes were told

Memories were made

I’m sure we all have a great Ron Rose story . . .

Our family welcomes your stories, he connected with so many people. We would love to listen to them. We need a little time – our Dad was a living legend to us. We may be slow to respond. We hope you’ll understand. Feel free to share this news.
