On the morning of October 30, 2025, something extraordinary happened live on the air. The Concordia Heritage Foundation surprised Iris and Grizz with lifetime honorary memberships, recognizing their continued support of one of El Paso’s most important historic organizations.
The announcement came straight from Foundation President Olga Zamorano and her son, Louie Zamorano, who presented the certificates live in the studio. The honor was awarded by a unanimous vote of the board, marking a moment that neither of us will ever forget.
When Olga and Louie stepped into the booth, we thought we were just welcoming two of our favorite guests. But as they unfolded the certificates, the room filled with emotion. My heart stopped for a moment when I realized what was happening, and Iris immediately fawned over how beautiful the certificate was. It was one of those rare on-air moments that feels both humbling and surreal, the kind of moment that reminds you why community matters so much in this city.
