I’ve been watching Ktla for 45 years. Every time a Ktla anchor dies I cried. But this one hit really hard. I think of them as part of my family. My wife and I have been crying for the last 30 minutes. Oh God. Sam Rubin, we’re going to miss you. Especially your cheerfulness. Than you, thank you, thank you.

I grew up with Sam Rubin in L.A. I can’t believe he passed on so young. It’s such a shock! He was so positive and had great energy. Watching Frank Buckley have such pain and difficulty reporting this just made me cry. You can tell they had a great relationship and I commend Frank for showing emotion and letting his tears flow to let other men know, it’s okay to cry. May Sam he rest in peace.
He made it always look so effortless. It was always a CONVERSATION, not an interview. We'll miss you, Sam ! 💙🙏👍👍👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

RIP Sam. May God grant you peaceful journey home and continue watching over your family. More than 30 years watching you every morning, thank you for all the memories.
If you are from So Cal, you knew Sam Rubin. His energy made gloomy mornings tolerable. He will be missed.
I had the privilege of helping Sam Rubin a few years ago ( maybe less than two years) at one of the retail places in woodland hills. One quiet night, he comes in and tells me he needed help picking hiking shoes for his son. I did help them and he was very down to earth. He did say they were going hiking and if I remembered it right, they were going to Oregon or Seattle. What stood out to me was the fact that I thought he looked very tired. Rest now in peace Sam Rubin. I can’t believe you are gone.
As a native Los Angelino I've watched KTLA my entire life and have enjoyed watching Sam Rubin for half of it. Whenever it came to entertainment news, he was always home base to me. My heart is broken for his family and his colleagues. And to you, Frank Buckley, I so appreciate your professionalism through such obvious grief. Condolences to you all. RIP Sam Rubin.
Sam was like the rock of KTLA. He was like the uncle with a story to tell. He will be missed by all.

I am a Southern California now living in Colorado,saw this and felt so much sadness . He was part of my morning routine many years ago.He will be greatly missed missed.
30 seconds in, I was also in tears. I no longer live in California, but I still keep up with KTLA, my favorite morning crew. This is hard.
My Aunt Carmen passed away this morning as well. She loved movies. She was our entertainment reporter. She would watch KTLA and Sam Rubin everyday and kept us up to date. She was our TMZ/Sam Rubin. Rest in peace Tia and Sam.

I've followed him on KTLA for over 25 years.... he was a friend that I knew I could visit daily to count on for a laugh and a smile. His warm and welcoming smile is going to be missed. KTLA and the world will never be the same. RIP dear, sweet, friend. You will be missed... 1960-2024 💔🫶🏻🙏🏼💕✨️
Frank, I am so touched by your delivery of this message. God Bless Sam Rubin. May he rest in peace.

I'm 27 now and Sam was there every morning from when I woke up to get ready to school to now when I work from home and the TV is on in the background while I plugged away at my media job. Thank you Sam, we love you 💙
Sam was soooooo loved! He will be missed. Heaven's gain.
Frank Buckley broke my heart..I will remember Sam's family in my prayers tonight. PEACE BE UNTO ALL OF YOU🙏🏿
Tears are a sign of love and respect for the deceased. Never be ashamed to cry since that devalues and disrespects the deceased.
Since setting foot in LA to visit my parents almost 30 years ago, KTLA has been my constant and only connection with SoCal. Sam, Frank and so many of the early morning news team have been my source of knowledge of all things LA, the hilarious, the poignant, the profound and the ridiculous. Rubin’s segments never failed to bring so much effervescent energy and joy to my otherwise quite solitary existence in an unfamiliar environment. LA will not feel like my second home without KTLA, and Sam is one of main reasons for my emotional attachment to the city and SoCal. You will be sorely missed, Sam. Thank you so much, Frank, for sharing such sad news with us with so much genuine emotion, humility, respect, and above all, affection. I will still tune in to KTLA when I am in town next. And I know I can expect to see the same level of energy and vibrancy that have almost been the hallmarks of KTLA. Love from England 💝
My condolences to the KTLA News crew. I loved Sam, and he inspired me to pursue Journalism. I grew up watching KTLA and looked forward to Sam's segments every morning. Thank You, Sam Rubin
Thank you Sam Rubin for years of sometimes just background noise, but comforting. All the way from the days of Barbara Beck and Carlos Amezcua, you've been there. God Bless his family and the KTLA family. Great station. Locals.

How sad. I live in west Texas now but originally from So Cal, and KTLA has always been my favorite news source since the days of Hal Fishman and Larry McCormick. Whenever I visit my family in San Juan Capistrano, I'm always up early with my coffee and Sam doing the news.
I live in Arkansas and I even knew of how much of a legend he is. Sorry your friend has passed. My condolences
Sam was a refreshing news reporter. I enjoyed his air time. God bless him and his family.
I moved to California as a kid in the mid-90s. I basically grew up watching him every morning before school. He was a fun and interesting guy to watch on the news. Great personality. Great vibe. Man this is so unfair. Thank you for the memories, Sam. RIP.
This one hurts.. I have been watching him since the beginning 1991.
