A function of age XIX

Yesterday, I thought, "I wonder what became of (a St. Louis radio personality.)"  I soon learned that he retired from broadcasting a few months ago.

"Retired?" I thought for a moment.  "But he started in radio back in...well, 1971."

Even though I know that we all age, it's easy to think that the announcers you've heard for decades will always be on the air somewhere.

Then, it dawns on you that won't be the case--and, after 52 years of work, one deserves a well-earned retirement.
