RIP Tom.

They just went off the air 2 years ago with new shows. That surprises me that it would be something related to Alzheimer's Disease since it didn't come across that he was having issues of that kind.

One last laugh from Ray:


The radio host died of complications from Alzheimer’s disease, according to NPR. In a statement announcing his brother’s death, Ray said: “Turns out he wasn’t kidding. He really couldn’t remember last week’s puzzler.”

Feels a bit like losing a friend. Logged a lot of hours and a lot of miles with Car Talk. A life well lived; I hope it was a peaceful and painless release.

RIP.

My daughter will be bummed. One of our favorite Saturday morning activities.

He was a funny guy who seemed to genuinely enjoy what he was doing. Thanks for the laughs, Tom. And don't drive like my brother.
