I'm old enough to remember him anchoring the evening news before becoming a soft-news/morning show personality.

Very sad indeed..... were they still living in metro Detroit? Or did they retire to a warmer climate?

Jeez, that brought back memories. I go back to the Dick Westerkamp days.

Sad news, time marches on.

Why won't hipsters get wise and ditch the homogeneous trend towards breads and horn-rimmed glasses? Don't they know sporting grey curly fro's like the one Kelly had are the way to go?

Detroit needs a replacement personality who looks like Kelly, can hold his liquor like Bill Kennedy [[Sorry, LeDuff, you don't qualify), and laugh like Sir Graves Ghastly.
