My heart is breaking this morning. We've lost a sports broadcasting legend. He was a great mentor, my friend and loved by many. I'm sad to report that former @KING5Seattle sports director Tony Ventrella passed away last night at the age of 80 with his family by his side.

It's with a very heavy heart that I send this. This past Wednesday my brother Brian passed away and is now up in heaven walking his dog and fishing. He was my fishing buddy, a great brother, son, uncle, friend, outdoorsmen, and a loving dog owner. Rest in Peace Brian, I love you!

My heart is breaking! I've lost another brother, this time my work brother. I worked side by side with photojournalist Alan Reed for 22 years and I'm sorry to say Alan has passed away. Alan was the quiet hero of King 5 Sports! He was loved and trusted by many! Love you, RIP AREED

No sports on tv, no youth sports games to attend or practices to coach, no school concerts , no auctions to emcee, so what did I do? I had dinner with my family and we ate, laughed , played games and talked for 6 straight hours! It was a very good night. We’ll get thru this!.
