A Tribute to Chuck Stevens
by Ronnie Dee
"I want to salute one of the best disc jockeys in the Rhode Island area. "The Chucker" as
most of us called him, spent the better part of the 50"s and 60"s at the top of the class on
Rhode Island radio. I attrubute my getting in the entertainment business primarily to
Chuck when I interned with him of WPAW in Pawtucket, RI. for many years. He also
worked on many other local stations such as WHIM, WGNG. WRIB and others. He was a
"Unique" personality spinning an excellent choice of music, intermingled with his with and
a bit of harmless sarcasm. I remember working with him on many of the oldies shows in
the area which he hosted. Chuck was "One of a Kind" very special, and a good friend.
Chuck was inducted into the Rhode Island Radio Hall of Fame on May 22, 2008. Chuck
has gone now to Disc Jockey Heaven, but we will never forget him and his classic
'HELLO, YOU' at the beginning of each and every show"
