Signing Off in Seattle

Back in March, FTVLive told you that longtime KIRO (Seattle) Anchor Steve Raible retiring from Cox station after more than three decades.

Well, this is his last week at the station. “He’s the face of KIRO and people have made a connection with Steve,” said John LaPorte, KIRO’s news director. “They welcome him into their homes. For a lot of people, when you say KIRO 7, the very first person you think of is Steve Raible.”

Raible will continue his radio work covering the Seattle Seahawks and he says that every morning I get up and, and just say, ‘I’m blessed.’ Even during difficult times like this, I’m blessed, and how can we, Sharon (his wife) and I, make somebody else’s life a little better? And, you know, that’s where we are.”

his last day is June 26th.
