Jess WILSON (Kew) (09:55): I was very sad to hear of the passing of Philip Brady OAM, radio and TV great and local Kew icon. Phil had an outstanding career in both TV and radio spanning decades, only retiring from his 3AW radio program last month. He leaves an incredible legacy, and it will be very sad not to hear his dulcet tones on air. Phil, thank you for your incredible contribution to TV and radio over the past 67 years – Australian broadcast media is all the better for it. Your compassion, integrity and ability to spread joy will be dearly missed. I will miss our coffees at Beejans bakery in Kew and your festive spirit at the Kew Community Carols each Christmas. My thoughts and prayers are with Phil’s family and friends during this difficult time. Vale, Philip Brady.
