It is with extreme sadness and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our brother Dusty Litster. For the past 15 months Dusty put up a courageous battle against brain cancer and while it’s sad to know he is no longer with us, all of us at Rewind could not be more proud of the fight he showed by not only exceeding the normal 3-month life expectancy he was given during his initial diagnosis, but he actually made it back to call the High School Basketball Championships earlier this year. Dusty not only was an ambassador for high school sports, he became the true voice for all of the big moments across the state while never shining the spotlight away from the athletes. When Rewind was formed, the premise behind our coverage was to be the outlet that covered the state the right way and for the right reasons. It was our goal from day 1 to always be the group that was approachable, cared about the under dogs, and always remained positive in our coverage. None of those would have been possible without Dusty’s humility, passion, and willingness to simply lend his voice to the moment instead of making the moment about anything else. While we know there is solace in knowing he is no longer hurting, our hearts hurt for Dusty’s wife Megan and for their kids. Dusty as a husband, as a father, and as a friend was somehow even better than Dusty behind the mic and it’s those qualities that we all will miss the most. Dusty may be gone from this world, but his impact and his love will never be forgotten!
