“Some sad news to report if you are a long time CHFI listener. Former evening host Don Jackson has passed away. His show, Lovers & Other Strangers was hugely popular in the ‘90s and early 2000s…it was so far ahead of its time…weaving music, stories & poetry that went straight to your heart. RIP DJ” -Ian MacArthur

Erin Davis also wrote a beautiful tribute to Don Jackson on her journal:

“Don was one of the most talented broadcasters with whom I have had the great fortune to share the airwaves. If you never heard Lovers, you missed a nightly display of aural magic – a Northern Lights to the ear.” Erin Davis
