 Re: Godspeed...
Dennis Richmond is a cool local icon but Bay Area locals of a certain age will always remember Bob Wilkins as the region's monster pimp.

 Re: Godspeed...
I got to meet Bob Wilkins a few times, my dad worked on his car.

 Re: Godspeed...
I have much respect for any person, who can stomach the same job for 40 years. Best of luck Dennis Richmond. Best of luck

 Re: Godspeed...
I pity the fool who has to follow Dennis Richmond's gig... it would almost be better if they got some total clown as a mid-meal sorbet course for a few weeks and then introduce the real replacement.
He was always my favorite local news anchor... he would've kicked Ron Burgandy's ass!!!

 Re: Godspeed...
This is truly sad indeed. He was one of the things that made me feel like I was back in the SF of my youth whenever I am there. And anyone named Dennis is cool in my book.
