The family of KCSM listener Anna reached out to Station Manager Dr. Robert Franklin with a special request. Anna was celebrating her 103rd Birthday, and they wanted to surprise her with a message from her favorite KCSM On Air Announcer.

Robert sprang into action to make her wish come true. (click the story subject line for more)

He contacted Sonny Buxton and together they made sure Anna received quite the surprise at her 103rd birthday party.

Anna's family writes:

Sonny,

You brought great joy to Anna, her family and friends. Thank you.

Her daughters hosted a sizable birthday party for her on 8/26,.. She spoke with many guests about your last show. The next day she opened your envelope. I’ll let the Anna tell you what she thinks of your gracious note.

Sonny. You’re the BEST. You brought JOY, BLACK JOY to Anna her family and friends. Thank you and Dr. Franklin for answering my request.

I know that your kind words will generate a lot of donations to the station on your behalf.

We’re all very grateful to you.

Much Love,
