He was an excellent writer/wordsmith...and was open and actually asked for photog/editing suggestions. And as far as working with him in the van/on the road...pure joy. We'd talk about his beloved Giants/the NL West/baseball in general.<br /><br />GREAT guy to work with.

Yesterday his son and wife welcomed a baby boy in NY. Mike AND Janice, my sister, were there. Their other son who lives in Boston was there. They are leaving SF to be close to their children. They have an almost 40 year marriage - one of the best! Mike's health is great! They are very nostalgic about leaving their much loved SF but ready for a new chapter in their life - sounds like Rich should get one! <br />Donna Wright RussoDonnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09602270401106990415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-55671397366538589692016-06-25T12:30:21.549-07:002016-06-25T12:30:21.549-07:00Agree with 2:39.

I know that he's an excellent reporter. He's won just about every local and national award there is but if you don't think he's a good reporter that"s OK. I don't understand why you wrote and then crossed out the comment "Think she's going to New York? think again" and then added the comment about personal issues and there's a ton of inside material we'll bring to you once the dust settles. By crossing it out you seem to retract the suggestion that she is not going with him. You should either delete it immediately or offer the "inside material now rather than wait until the dust settles. It's true that he is a public figure and doesn't have complete privacy but that doesn't mean you can libel him by implying that there is some sinister ulterior motive for leaving. I'm sure some of the "bean counters" at the corporate headquarters would be happy to see a veteran highly paid reporter leave and be replaced by part timers who make a lot less but I doubt that he would be forced out by the local management.
