I'm 26 y/o and I can say that I remember Al Sanders, but not as well as many of the faithful WJZ viewers though. I also remember, very well, the news of Al Sanders' passing. That was a sad day in Baltimore history. Everyone in the newsroom took it hard, and I remember Denise Koch being unable to get through her words, because it was such a great loss. I can say that I believe Al Sanders still lives through all of the newscasters!

Thanks for posting this tribute!
