"Mac" Gorson, one of WRSU's first on-air personalities passed away

Pennsylvania in 1952. Mr. Gorson participated in early test
broadcasts of WRSU-AM, hosting a segment entitled "Horsin' with
Gorson". Here is a note from Mr. Gorson's son, Noah:
"My father passed away on
September 27th – a memorial was held in Atlantic City,
his birth place and the location of the Gorson family plot, I spoke,
briefly, at the service and wanted you to know that his memories of
his Rutgers years and time at the radio station were important to
him and that I shared that with the many people present. I
thank you for reaching out to the family last year to convey WRSU’s
appreciation for his work and the invitation to attend the 70th
anniversary."
