Just days after retirement too, very similar to his fellow 60 minutes vet Andy Rooney. |

Talk about an ambitious man, longest-serving reporter of 60 Minutes, 12 Emmys plus many other awards, so many experiences and stories covered (Nigerian Civil War, Arab-Israeli War, Vietnam, Gulf of Tonkin, etc.), an excellent eye for stories, superb interviewing abilities, so much travelling. Left quite a legacy for his children & protégés to live up to; RIP Morley Safer.
