Senior editor, Live Team @nytimes. Always: @nytsports, @dallasnews, @columbiajourn, @emorywheel, @councilrocksd. If it is to be said, so it be, so it is.
Fern Turkowitz enjoyed a 47-year career at The NY Times in which she ran the Sports Dept. If you had an issue, she solved it. If you had a question, she answered it. Forever an ally, Fern did everything with a caring touch. She passed away on Sunday. RIP to a great friend. 🙏
This one hurts to the core: farewell Larry Brooks, whose genius & talent as a writer was surpassed only by his love of family, passion for hockey, and generosity of spirit in mentoring generations of colleagues better for his wisdom and great good company. https://t.co/0V6yqjF2Pq
