Gone but not forgotten: Knoxville area restaurants and retailers we miss.

Margie Ison has passed away. Such sad news for east Tennessee. Everyone loved her!

She worked at WBIR from 1979 to 1995. Did any of you get to meet her? I never got to, but always adored her.

It's amazing to watch the video and see how much TV weather broadcasting has changed since Margie was on the air.

Gut punch, for sure. She came and spoke to my elementary school. Really nice lady.

Saw her multiple times over the years at the Fountain City post office, guess she lived close. She would chat you up in line like an old friend.
