Fond memories of friendship with Brian Williams

Dear, dear, Brian. Hmm. I have been very fortunate to have had good friends and colleagues. You were among the best. You have received many accolades about your professionalism and great career. So I go with friendship memories. I hope you in my last sarcasm about your laurels took it with a smile when we briefly switched news desks in New York and you took over Financial News and I on General News. I was a fish out of water compared to you. (I do love the memory of you coming in at a morning news briefing with your arm in a sling, bruised face and a black eye.)

I'll catch up with you next time. ’Til then, fond memories. And keep warm.

Siegi and I miss you both. ■
