    His voice is very comforting. I remember hearing it from the time I was tiny. He enriched so many of our lives.

    RIP... We need more reporters like him, less rabble like what passes for news these days...

    Well, dammit.

    Don't know why I am choked up about this news. It's not like he wasn't old and it's not like I didn't know he was ill.....

    Bummer. Major bummer.

    And yeah, maybe it was because I was a kid for most of the time he was an anchor, but I remember feeling things were going to be okay just by listening to the tone of his voice while reading the news.

    There was something very re assuring about his delivery of the news. No BS. A lot of empathy for Americans and the world, without serving up an agenda.
