Longtime KFBK radio personality Rick Stewart, who lately had been the station's voice of traffic and its noon news anchor, died Friday afternoon at a Sacramento hospital. He had been suffering from a kidney ailment.
Today, KFBK's noon news aired a tribute to Stewart, featuring anchors Amy Lewis and Jennifer Steele as well as former DJs Joey Mitchell and Jim Hall at KRAK, the country music station where Stewart previously worked. In addition, KFBK created a Web page in honor of Stewart.
Stewart is survived by his wife Nina, and children Michael and Andrea.
Look for an an obituary later this week in The Bee.
