South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem declared officially John Derrek day in the state of South Dakota. John is the Mid Day host on Bethesda Christian’s KTPT/Rapid City (97.9 The Breeze).

Sister station KSLT PD Jamie Knapp told HisAir, “What an honor to celebrate JD and his 50 years in radio and being such a blessing to others!”

HisAir is sad to report KKEQ/Grand Forks (Your Q FM) on air personality Jake “JD” Hertwig (picture) has passed away. JD graduated from Bemidji State University in spring of 2012 and joined KKEQ in 2013. KKEQ PD Josh Jones says, “We are an extremely small radio family, and we are very tore up.  Mom is Joanne, dad is Dan & sister Megan. Thank you for your prayers.”
