Merle Ross
Longtime KSRO radio broadcaster Merle Ross has died at the age of 92. Ross passed away last Sunday after having a stroke a few days prior. He began his career with KSRO in 1959 as a production manager but, over nearly 40 years, filled many shoes from reporter to news anchor. He is most noted for his time co-anchoring the morning news program and covering college and high school games with fellow legend Jim Grady. During KSRO’s 80th anniversary celebrations in 2017, Randi Rossmann, his daughter, talked about Merle and how they covered election night throughout the years.
“He’d be there for the radio, I’d be there for the Press Democrat, we’d hang out together, we’d rush off to make out next deadline,” said Rossmann. “I’ve got some really treasured photos, long time photojournalist for Jeff Lee, he’d be out every year there too, and he would our picture together. And so we’ve got these great pictures of us.”
