Quinn transitioned to talk radio with co-host Rose Tennant heard on local stations and satellite radio in the 2000's.
Bubba, from 100.7 Star tells KDKA Radio, "the only reason I'm in radio today and have a radio career is because of Jim Quinn."
Bubba said he maintained a relationship with Quinn over the years.
Larry Richert worked with Quinn at WTAE Radio said the last time he saw him "he had one of his Corvettes and he was a car guy."
No immediate cause of death was given.
