As we come to the close of '25 I am excited for the future of GNC. We were broadcasters for nearly 40 years and the transition to doing marketing and public relations wasn't planned. But, over the last 7 years we have built a great team and have gained great knowledge and experience. And we have great clients that we love to serve. I am also really happy that our daughter Bekah is now the leader. She is part of the younger generation that has gifts and talents we don't have, but has the historical background and connections of her parents to tap into. Happy New Year!

My wife and I shared our story with the U of A Ad Cats. Really sharp young people with a great future. Our history is in traditional media, and it was like ancient history to them. Still viable for people over 45, but I am glad we have our daughter Bekah Collins leading our team for the future!

When I moved to Tucson in '85 I was 40 pounds overweight. I always worked out, but that didn't counteract my diet. I gained it when my wife was pregnant and she lost hers but not me! Dr. Hancock, (our client) told me to shun whites (sugar, flour, milk) and eat greens and browns. The weight left and hasn't returned. Temporary diets work temporarily, change your lifestyle and it lasts for life. Here is me back then!

In 1994 we did the movie premier of Gordy. Our stations promoted the film and I emceed several listener events. There was a woman who went with me to the events and provided information. She was very nice, funny and down to earth. It was a very successful event and afterwards the promoter told me that she was Christy Walton. No wonder all of the events were at Walmart!

I am praying for the Dr. that does the pro prop 139 ads. There are many that were like her, including Abby Johnson (former Director of Planned Parenthood) whose hearts have changed and have received forgiveness in Christ. It is the goodness of God that leads to repentance (Romans 2:4), and saved a wretch like me.

I'm 69, but in OV I'm a young man. At Safeway an older guy told me to look for expiring meat for a 50% discount, a lady told me to buy green bananas for my health and the bagger asked me to carry out an older ladies bags. Welcome to OV!

When we pray God hears and answers in His way and time. We are tested and grow if we don't lose hope. Then He makes a way and clears the way for us.

When I sold radio I was insulted, thrown out and had someone tear off his shirt (Ned Kathy Thomas). I never took it personally and looked to build relationships. I had someone come to sell me, when I asked questions about the product, she took it personally and lost the opportunity. Don't go into sales if you are thin skinned.

Love seeing people start businesses and succeed in the Old Pueblo. This creates jobs and opportunity for others and is key to a healthy community. Todd R Martin and Sherry started Tucson Tamale Company in 2008. They just won Tucson Lifestyle Magazine"Made In Tucson" award for their hot sauce. Their success is our success!

At our Southern Arizona Law Enforcement Foundation-SALEF board meeting we saw some of the equipment we have funded for our officers. This included bullet resistant glass on vehicles. Recently they were fired upon by a felon who shot up a neighborhood. The glass protected the officers and they were able to stop the perpetrator. The work we do is life saving for those who protect and serve us.

I used to believe when you were 65+ that Medicare was "free", you could eat whatever you want and "retirement" was a long vacation. My company paid for my health coverage now I do, my Doctor restricts my diet, and most retired people I know long for something to do. Enjoy the seasons of life!
