Zwygart, once the man who many considered to be the voice of St. Louis,

Zwygart spent many years hosting the Total Information program, a morning
news show heard by a quarter of a million listeners.
The voice of Rex Davis was a mainstay until he retired in 1981 at the age of
71. His retirement was short-lived. In 1985, he returned to KMOX and became
a part-time voice on the late Bob Hardy's morning show.
In addition to Susanne Zwygart, his wife of almost 70 years, his survivors
include a daughter, a son, two sisters, five grandchildren; and six
great-grandchildren
