Kidd Kraddick died under mysterious conditions. He was famous for personally paying for children, who were diagnosed with deadly desease, to go to Disneyland and a morning show that featured an interracial cast of stars, including an Afro American and Hispanic, along with several famale stars. At the end of every show, he would say, KEEP LOOKING UP, BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE ITS ALL COMING DOWN!

David Peter Cradick[2] (August 22, 1959 – July 27, 2013) was an American radio host and television personality, known as Kidd Kraddick. His nationally syndicated morning radio show, The Kidd Kraddick Morning Show, is based in Irving, Texas, and aired throughout the U.S., syndicated by Kraddick's company, YEA Networks. He was also seen on the nationally syndicated Dish Nation television show weeknights around the United States.

Kraddick died on July 27, 2013, while attending an annual fundraiser for his charity, Kidd's Kids, at Timberlane Country Club in Gretna, Louisiana. Jefferson Parish Deputy Coroner Granville Morse (is Morse in Jefferson County code?) said heart disease was “evident” and that drug use and foul play were not suspected, according to his findings after a routine autopsy. Morse said Kraddick had an enlarged heart, which is a sign of high blood pressure. He also had three diseased vessels and one of his arteries had an 80 percent blockage. In early August 2013, Kraddick's cause of death was officially determined to be the result of arteriosclerotic and hypertensive cardiovascular disease, read a report released by the Jefferson Parish Coroner's Office. He was only 53 years old, when he died and obtained routine physicals every year. How did doctors - using cutting edge, medical computer technology - miss these symptoms?

Coincidentally, as I returned after the largest antiwar protest - sponsored by Code Pink - against the illegal invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan by the Bush/ Cheney crime syndicate, my radio began picking up extremely distant signals on 101.7 FM, while I drove through numerous states, from Washington DC. When I returned to Tuscaloosa, Alabama, imagine my surprise when I discovered the names of the only two female on-air personalities, at Kidd Kaddick In the Morning, on B 101.7 FM, were the same first names of my daughters; Kelly and Taylor.
