For the START OF THE NEW YEAR The New Zealand Retro Weekly Top 40 Countdown, hosted by Rob Walker, presents a special end of year retro chart show – of sorts. It’s not the regular weekly retro top 40 chart, but a look at the #1 hits from the last official NZ singles charts of each year from 1975–2000 – a span of 25 years of #1 hits. The show will also spotlight tracks from the #1 albums that were on the official New Zealand album charts for the last weeks of those years as well. Everything from Freddy Fender to Dire Straits, the late great Michael Jackson to S Club 7 and more. And as it’s our charts, it’s our music with Kiwi #1 hits from Peking Man, Headless Chickens, and others. Tune in to Barton FM in Barton on Humber, North East Lincolnshire, England from 12pm UK Time (1am Monday NZ Time) through www.bartonfmradio.co.uk for the most syndicated music show on New Zealand Radio, that is NOW heard overseas!

My dear brother Wayne passed away peacefully last night from a stroke. I'm so grateful that I had the opportunity to visit him in the hospital before he passed.

Wayne brought so much light, laughter, and love to everyone who knew him, especially me. He was the ultimate optimist and was loved by everyone.

I'm sure I speak on behalf of every one of us siblings when I state that we were fortunate to have Wayne as a brother.

Even though we are separated in this mortal life, I know that by the grace and resurrection of our Savior, Jesus Christ, we will have the opportunity to be with Wayne for eternity.

I love you, Wayne.

Your brother forever,

Donny
