: In today's Chicago Sun-Times, they ran an article called "Famous Chicagoans Thank Their Moms." In that piece were two Chicago media stars, WLS' Roe Conn and WMAQ's Lauren Jiggetts, praising their own Mothers. The complete column is available at the link below, but here is the Chicago media portion of it: : = : WLS-AM RADIO HOST ROE CONN ON HIS MOTHER, DOLORES: : "My mother is really smart, but she does have a bit of a conspiracy streak. She would make the perfect talk-show host, and she definitely passed down her curiosity and sense of humor. Her best piece of advice is also the most ironic for a radio guy . . . listen more and talk less." : : NBC-5 REPORTER LAUREN JIGGETTS ON HER MOTHER, KAREN: : "My mom . . . taught me to be determined, disciplined and compassionate towards others. She always believed in me and pushed me to pursue my dreams. My mother told me not to worry about the people who didn't want me to succeed . . . to ignore the naysayers. [She] watches our newscast every night and TiVos the ones she has to miss. I love and respect her more than I can express in words."
