Remembering Mike Steele
A posting on the website of iHeartMedia Classic Rock WDVE/Pittsburgh reads, “Mike was a part-time jock on ‘DVE, a local producer for the Penguins games on [Alternative WXDX] 105.9 The X, and produced the local segment of the Steelers Radio Network. He also did fill-in work on [Classic Hits WWSW] 3WS and could be counted on at a moment’s notice for anything the stations need… a jack-of-all trades.”
The post continued, “Mike started out at 106.7 The Force in Beaver Falls. He was present for the transition when The Force became 105.9 The X in 1995. After a few years he moved to Austin, TX to work for Rock Station KLBJ. In 2011, he returned to WDVE.
Mike never had a bad word to say about anyone, and rarely complained about life in general. His passion was music, especially local music. Mike will be missed by all.”
