It's always sad when someone dies but it's nice to see he lived a full life-and an exciting one.

I was amazed at the way the room simultaneously, instantly began to sit up straighter and lean forward. He was so well respected. But even greater was his sense of humor- he had some great stories to tell that day. When I was in my journalism program my professor brought in Cronkite to talk to the class.

Though he was sick, it doesn't make it any easier to stomach. I will always remember him from the footage of him reporting the death of JFK. He just couldn't hold it together. It was heartbreaking and so real. He will be missed. Being a broadcast journalist myself, this is such sad news. Though he was sick, it doesn’t make it any easier to stomach.
