NASHVILLE, Tenn. (RFD News) — Longtime Opry announcer and Radio Host Bill Cody has passed away at the age of 67.
For more than 30 years, he served as WSM Radio’s flagship morning program and became known for his longtime role as the host and announcer of the Grand Ole Opry.
He grew up in Kentucky as a preacher’s son and was introduced to radio at an early age, where he would join his father at the local radio station to exchange Sunday worship tapes for broadcast.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the Cody’s family.
