@sed1228 - A circa 1964 sign-off of WGBH-2 from Mr. Henning is in the audio section of Jeff Kadet's 'DXPhotos' site, among other sign-offs recorded between 1963 and '65.
Yesterday, John Henning passed away at age 73 after a battle with leukemia. Prior to his tenure at WNAC-7 (now WHDH), he was on WGBH-2 and WCVB-5. After leaving WNAC, he joined WBZ-4 in '82 and remained there until just before his death. His passing caught me by surprise because he seemed fine to me during a appearance last year. God bless you John and rest in peace.
In my honest opinion, what I would have liked to see is WNAC still being affiliated with ABC and still being owned by RKO General, with John Henning at the anchor desk. That way, Mr. Henning could also have done a tribute to Peter Jennings.
4:26 what kind of woman was that?
