It is with deepest sadness that we announce that veteran radio DJ, Terry Farrugia, has lost his battle to cancer. Terry, who was diagnosed with leukaemia in 2016, passed away this morning. Terry leaves behind his wife Krista and two children aged eight and 10.

Back in January, a crowdfunding page called Terry Time Trust was launched to help the legend of Maltese radio continue his (expensive) battle with the rare form of cancer. Terry had undergone multiple rounds of chemotherapy, a transplant, and more rounds of chemo and radiation, even heading to Texas for further treatment.

Terry will be sorely missed by his family, members of the media and radio industry, and friends. Details of the funeral will be announced at a later stage.

The team passes on their sincerest condolences to Terry’s family, friends and colleagues.
