Former News 8 anchor and WTIC-AM morning host Diane Smith joined Brian Shactman on the radio Thursday morning to remember Mark Davis who died this week at the age of 76.
Smith and Davis co-anchored the news together at WTNH.
In another career twist, Davis began his broadcast career in Connecticut at WTIC-AM – he paired with Smith at channel 8 – and then after she left News 8 Smith hosted mornings on WTIC.
Smith described Davis as someone with very high standards and high expectations, but always understanding of his colleagues and the challenges of putting together a daily newscast.

Some Laurel readers have asked about funeral arrangements for Mark. We have been told that at his request there will be no funeral or memorial service. A celebration of his life may be scheduled in the future.
