This letter, like the entire news of your retirement, is the definition of surreal.
I guess I was naïve thinking this day wouldn’t come, where we said good bye.
In my entire life, on-camera and off-, I can count on one hand, the people I’ve shared this amount of time with.
But unlike most, we sat inches and yes, sometimes six feet apart.
I told you about my family, my fears, my hopes and my dreams. You always listened. That’s the key word, you listened.
There is little doubt that you have earned a special place in Heaven for your patience and guidance with me.
TV viewers watch us (at least hopefully), but I was the one watching. I watched as you courageously battled and beat cancer.
I watched in awe as you came to work each day, even while sick, and never complained even once.
I watched as you lived a life of faith, never wavering from your belief and leading by example.
Those around you, who you knew and those you never met, could feel something special about you. And in turn, you made them feel something special about themselves.
Thank you doesn’t seem like enough. But thank you for your friendship.
Putting up with me should earn you sainthood! I will miss you so much.
I love you and the years we spent together will be cherished forever.
Greg
