St. Louis, MO – Friday is the last day on the job for one of our reporters here at KWMU. Kevin Lavery has been with the station for more than seven years.
He arrived here, in fact, just a few days before Pope John Paul II did in 1999.
Kevin, his wife Karen, their two daughters, and their beagle are headed to East Lansing, Michigan, where Kevin has a new gig at a public radio station there. He's getting a promotion of sorts; he'll be the news director at WKAR-FM, located on the campus of Michigan State University.
