Jamie, along with his wife Katina, was owner and operator of McKibbin Media Group, Inc., licensee of WKHM AM/FM and WIBM Jackson and WCSR AM/FM in Hillsdale. Jamie loved everything about the outdoors, and was an avid hunter and fisherman. Jamie’s other passion was going to his son Walker’s sporting activities, especially coaching his baseball team.
Jamie achieved his lifelong dream of owning radio stations with the purchase of the Jackson stations in December 2019, followed by the addition of his hometown stations in Hillsdale in February 2020. He was also involved with the Michigan Association of Broadcasters, and had recently joined its Board of Directors.
In addition to Katina and Walker, Jamie is survived by his mother, Sharon and her husband Robert, of Camden, Michigan.
The Hillsdale staff wishes to express their deepest condolences to all who knew and loved Jamie. He was an amazing, affirming owner, boss, and friend. We are shocked and saddened. He will be dearly missed.

My heart is truly saddened and broken hearted for his parents Robert and Sharon, his wife and son, his family and friends, I became close friends with his mom and dad in 1986, My girls grew up with him. I will never forget his passion for the outdoors then, He was 8 or 9 yrs old and I remember him taking me in the basement and showing me all the flies he would make for fly fishing, and how did it, Such. a great loss, he definitely lived and loved life to the fullest, and fulfilled his dreams, Rest in heaven Jamie, you will be sadly missed by all.
