Harrisburg Anchor Passes Away

Longtime WHTM (Harrisburg, PA) Sports Anchor Gregg Mace passed away yesterday.

Mace joined the station in 1979 as the station’s first weekend Sports Anchor. Not long after, he was bumped up to the WHTM Sports Director gig where he remained for the next 40 years.

No cause of death was released, but Mace had recently taken an absence from the air "due to an unspecified medical condition".

His son posted the news on his account, informing viewers of his death:

His co-workers and former co-workers posted about working with him:
