BREAKING NEWS: Otters Mourning The Death Of Mike Radomski

0
The Evansville Otters are mourning the sudden loss of former broadcaster Mike Radomski, who died in the early morning hours on Oct. 12 in an automobile accident in Florida. He was 29.
“Mike was a beloved member of the Otters community,” Otters owner Bill Bussing said. “He came here as an employee, but left as a dear friend to many of us.”
Radomski was an important part of the Otters’ franchise during his time in Evansville as an Account Executive and Director of Media Relations.
“It’s difficult to walk into the press box at Bosse Field and not think about his legacy,” Bussing added.
From 2010-15, he broadcasted games on WUEV 91.5 FM alongside Bill McKeon while also assisting in sales. He hosted Otters Insider, a weekly talk show that featured interviews with manager Andy McCauley and players.
“Mike was a great ambassador for the league for six seasons,” Deputy Commissioner Steve Tahsler said. “We are saddened by the news and we send our thoughts to his family.”
Radomski is the longest tenured radio broadcaster in franchise history, calling over 550 games for the Otters. He successfully guided the team through a website overhaul at evansvilleotters.comand revived the team’s social media platforms.
In 2014, he became the Director of Media Relations at the University of Evansville where he oversaw media aspects for women’s basketball, baseball, men’s and women’s soccer for the Purple Aces.
After a year at UE, Radomski took a job at the University of South Florida in the same capacity, overseeing media aspects for men’s basketball, cross country and track.
He was born and raised in New Jersey and earned his Bachelor’s Degree in Journalism from Quinnipiac University in 2010.
He leaves behind his wife, Christina, who he married in June 2016.
Never short of enthusiasm, he frequently used #RockThePlanet with social media posts. The Otters family sends our thoughts and prayers to Christina and the entire Radomski family.

0

Governor Eric J. Holcomb today signed an executive order naming Interstate 865 after Fred M. Fehsenfeld, Sr. in recognition of his service and contributions to the State of Indiana and the nation as an entrepreneur, decorated military veteran, and community leader.

Mr. Fehsenfeld is a lifelong Hoosier and founder of The Heritage Group in Indianapolis, which is involved in energy sales and marketing, environmental services, chemical refining, and more—in Indiana, across the nation, and worldwide.

He enlisted in the Army Air Corps at 18 and served in World War II, flying in 86 missions in Europe. Mr. Fehsenfeld is a recipient of three Silver Clusters and Silver Stars. Following Mr. Fehsenfeld’s service to the Army Air Corps, he served in the Indiana Air National Guard.

Beyond his military service and business success, Fred Fehsenfeld, Sr. throughout his life has supported innovations in the energy field, including establishing the Fehsenfeld Family Head of Environmental & Ecological Engineering and the Purdue Energy Fund at his alma mater Purdue University.

Interstate 865 is the east-west connector between Interstates 65 and 465 on the northwest side of Indianapolis. The Indiana Department of Transportation has marked the highway with signage designating it the “Fred M. Fehsenfeld, Sr. Highway.”
