Last week, FTVLive told you the sad news of KKTV (Colorado Springs) longtime Anchor Don Ward’s sudden death.

The newsroom shocked by the loss of their Anchor and while the memorial service was held, crosstown rival KOAA had their staff help out, so the KKTV staff could attend the memorial.

“While we mourn, our competitors at KOAA reminded us that our TV family goes beyond the walls at our station.  They graciously filled in for our staff today as we mourned, gathering any important news we need to share with the community tonight at 10. Thank you KOAA, and thank you to all the other stations and community members for your condolences,” KKTV wrote on their website.

Nice to see a station step up to help another.
