Fred Stuart 1955-2010

Dennis Risk, 55, of Lafayette, also known as the radio personality Fred Stuart, died on Wednesday, Nov. 24, 2010, at Indiana University Medical Center in Indianapolis. Born in Kokomo, Indiana on July 25, 1955, he was the son of the late Paul and Patricia Risk.

He was employed at WSHP-WBPE-WAZY Radio for the past 24 years, most recently as station manager for WSHP. He was an active member of Lafayette Business Group.

Fred and I worked together when he came to WAZY in the spring of 1986, and again when I returned to WAZY in 1999. He was an easy-going guy who got along with everyone. He was one of my all-time favorite production voices.
