This is, to me, not a cheerful post to write for me. I always loved watching Bree Smith on NewsChannel 5. She always made watching the weather forecast fun. I also liked her camaraderie she had with her on-air co-workers. In the links below, she said she was leaving to be with her family, which I don't blame her, but I, like a lot of other people, will miss her. I wish her the very best. Until more news break, that's all for now.
