Every once in a while, you find a journalist who gives 150% of himself to his quest for truth. Reggie Harris was one of those journalists. He worked for WWOR TV, the local UPN network in the New York metropolitan area. At only 46 years of age, Reggie died Monday of a heart attack while exercising at home. He leaves behind a wife and two children, all of whom he loved dearly. I had the honor of being interviewed by Reggie many times. I was always impressed at his professionalism. His UPN colleagues called him the "go to" guy, the one who was always given the breaking news assignment. When children and others were victimized online, I was often the one he'd call for help.

I will personally miss this extraordinary man. Today, in honor of all of his fine work, and caring, Cyberangels will name its young journalists team the Reggie Harris team. This is from our hearts. Our deepest sympathy to those who loved him. We loved him too.

We grieve his loss.

God bless, Reggie. Rest in Peace...
