Comments
I'm not normally a hater, but last night I got the news of the passing of my dear friend Norma "La Brava" at 10:50 pm. My first thought was to turn on KPFA. I called to inform the DJ of the sad news, and he was extremely rude & callous to me.... I just want to say to him... You Suck & you have lost a listener of many years. She was a huge asset to our radio station & our planet. She has been one of my closest friends for 30 years and I loved her dearly as did many. Blessings to her family & friends & may her soul resat in peace.
