I am profoundly saddened to hear that Larry Stogner has passed away. I grew up watching Larry on Channel 11, and later had the honor of getting to know him. He was a true journalist, fair, thorough, and devoted to his craft. I join with his many admirers in sending thoughts and prayers to his family.

Larry Stogner, longtime WTVD journalist, dies at 69
Stogner broadcast his final newscast as anchor last year. He has publicly battled ALS.
