I heard that earlier. He sure was good at what he did. God Bless Him and His Family. At least he isn't suffering anymore.

I heard it a little while ago and burst into tears. I remember watching him in the 60's so I feel like I grew up with him. I guess when you see someone on TV every night forever, they become someone you feel you know. I went to school to be a journalist so I greatly admired him. I really though he'd beat it. I'll really miss him. God Speed, PJ, and have a safe trip to heaven.

I also just heard this tonight. Extremely sad, my fiance's father works for ABC as an executive editor, and has worked there for 40 years, and worked in the same building as Peter did. I've visited the studio many times, and sat in Peter's chair. He will be greatly missed, such a beautiful man and a wonderful reporter.

Here are a few photos of us and some friends sitting in his chair, my thoughts a prayers are with his family tonight.

Yes, it is very sad. I heard it about 3:00 this morning when I couldn't sleep and was watching the world news. At least he didn't suffer for to long. He was a wonderful man and he will be missed.
