    RIP Jonathan Serigne. The husband of my longtime friend, and WDSU colleague Randi Rousseau, died tonight. He’s been battling a rare bone cancer for months. He was just 37 and leaves behind 2 small children. Please keep Randi in your thoughts and prayers if possible. 🙏

    RIP Carley McCord. This pic is from December 1st, when Meghan and I brought Finley to her first #NOLA @PelicansNBA game, and Carley was there covering it. Just a tragic situation, a great person who always had a smile on her face.
