Just talking with my grandmother about this, she said it felt like losing a member of her family to that generation. I felt the same about Peter Jacobsen, I grew up watching him and Brokaw.
RIP Walter

You know, with the current celebrating of the First Moon mission, I can remember Walter sitting in front of the cameras announcing the progress of the first landing and tearing up when they announced "The Eagle has landed".

RIP Walter.
