In memory, Ed Bradley (1941-2006)

Veteran 60 Minutes correspondent Ed Bradley died Thursday at Mount Sinai Hospital in Manhattan of complications from leukemia. He was 65.

"A kind, gentle, strong man. A first-rate reporter and a first-rate human being. And I can not believe what I have heard about his passing. Strong – always in and out of gymnasiums trying to keep in shape. It's just a shock.

When he laughed, he laughed whole-heartedly from down deep. He was just an absolutely delightful man."

– Mike Wallace, correspondent, 60 Minutes
