It is with deep sadness that we share the passing of Gary Holland, known to so many as ‘Mark Powers’ on the airwaves.

We are grateful for the years he spent behind the micr, the memories he created and the lives he touched along the way. Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends, and everyone who had the blessing of knowing him.

May he forever ride his bicycle through the most beautiful places Heaven has to offer 💛
