I’ve been sick to my stomach all afternoon since hearing about my old friend Dennis Washington. Dennis passed away today after a long bout with Leukemia. We worked together for many years at Fox6 and he was one of the nicest guys you could ever meet. That’s him in the red shirt on our Miami trip and then in the purple shirt on our Arizona trip. We always made him and Alan Baker room together because they were the two worst snorers and we figured we’d let them fight it out 😂.
I’ve also attached a small part of a long encouraging note he sent me after I got laid off at Fox6. As I was reading it today I thought “dang he was 100% right. It took almost exactly 5 years but I’m in a great place now.”
That’s who he was though. One of the most positive people I’ve ever met.

Numerous tributes poured in since the sudden demise of  Dennis Washington, Social media users could not hide their shock at his death news.

Below are some posts about the death news.

The world lost a good man this morning.
His wife Stacy would like me to pass along my thoughts on her husband and ask for your prayers.

Dennis Washington was the eternal optimist.
In the tough, high pressured world of local television news, Dennis was a calm, steady, reassuring voice with a smile that never left.

Dennis could do just about anything you asked of him.
Broadcast a TV weather forecast.
Design websites and navigate the web.
Shoot beautiful pictures and video.
Trek to California for a national championship football game and ask what he could do for you.
From his work on local TV to his accomplishments at Alabama Power, Dennis did it right.

Dennis Washington fought the good fight.
He tackled chemo and experimental treatments as he fought Acute Myeloid Leukemia.
He loved his wife Stacy.
He was so proud of his daughters Morgan and Katelyn (when Dennis started talking about softball, you buckled up).

Dennis went to Heaven at 10:37 this morning at the age of 49.
His wife Stacy tells me:
“I am devastated- he was my soulmate. We loved each other unconditionally.”

While the family mourns, it’s OK if we mourn, too.

For the world was a better place with Dennis Washington in it.

And for that we are blessed.

Washington’s funeral arrangements will be revealed by the family. The family and loved ones will share details about the obituary, funeral, and life celebration at the appropriate time. We will do our best to keep you updated on them.

Our heartfelt condolences go out to the deceased’s family and friends, who have been struggling with the loss of such an intelligent and compassionate individual.
