 | | Nordstrand, 72, of Chicago died Saturday, Aug. 27, at a Northwestern Memorial Hospital hospice unit of complications after a series of strokes, the most recent of which was in late July, said his longtime companion, Ethel Polk. |
 | | Nordstrand liked to claim there was nothing to equal the station anywhere in the United States, but he modestly shunned the label of tastemaker. |
 | | Nordstrand stuck to announcing for much of his first decade at WFMT until it became clear to Bernard Jacobs, who had founded the station with his wife, Rita, that Nordstrand had what it took to run the station and keep it solvent. |
