FYI

One of the original Voices of WWV Passed away.

Our Thoughts and prayers go out to the Family. 

The recorded voice of Time and Frequency Station WWV has fallen silent. This
with word that announcer Don Elliot Heald, of Atlanta, Georgia, who gave WWV
its
human touch passed away on Thursday, February 19th. 

Known in the broadcast world as Don Elliot, Heald had distinguished career
that
ranged from work at Atlanta Georgia's WSB to his automated and
internationally heard WWV broadcasts on shortwave. He was also the voice of
the
Audichron telephone dial-in Time-Weather-Temperature service and of the
Protestant Hour radio show for over 40 years. For nearly five decades Heald
narrated the televised Christmas Eve service from Atlanta's Episcopal
Cathedral of St. Philip, where he served as a vestryman, junior warden and
senior warden. 

Heald was originally from Massachusetts, but came to Atlanta via Lakeland,
Florida. He was a graduate of the University of Florida at Gainesville and
began
his broadcast career after graduation when he accepted a position at WRUF
where
remained for three years. In Atlanta he spent much of his spare time devoted
to
public service work with charities and civic clubs. 

A Service of Celebration of Don Elliot Heald's life took place on Tuesday
February 24th at the Cathedral of St. Philip. He is survived by his wife
Sara
Farmer Heald of Atlanta, GA; sons and daughters-in- law David and Deborah of
Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, Tom and Evelyn Heald and Frank and Mary Heald of
Atlanta. Don Elliot Heald was 86.
