This seems to be the year
to lose our familiar faces on
television.
Faces that we have regarded
with great trust. Peter Jennings,
and now Ed Bradley of 60 minutes.
I have always enjoyed Mr. Bradley.
He was so serious in his suit as he
looked out at us in our living rooms.
Very formal with the latest of news.
Yet, he would throw that suit jacket
over his shoulder and talk to different
people. Like they were his best friends.
Which a lot of them probably did become
that after his reporting.
He was just as comfortable talking to
heads of states, as he was with basketball
players, comedians, and even children.
He had the look of trust. And some of us
even grew old with him. I surely will miss
him as I tune in each Sunday. It just won't
be quite the same.
