The Passing of A Classic

Tom Magliozzi's laugh boomed in NPR listeners' ears every week as he and his brother, Ray, bantered on Car Talk.
Tom Magliozzi, co-host (with his brother Ray) of NPR's 'Car Talk' for 35 years, passed away this morning at 77 from complications of Alzheimer's. An auto mechanic with a PhD in finance, he brightened my day every Saturday with his wit, insight, and outrageous humor, plus some great car and relationship advice.  A real character and a class act, I will miss him. Fortunately, the old shows continue to be rebroadcast.  RIP Dr. Magliozzi.
