I remember her well from when I moved to Boston in '81. Became an avid Chronicle watcher when she started hosting it.

Thank you, Mary. Rest in Peace.

Growing up every night we watched Oprah followed by Newscenter 5 with Natalie Jacobson Chet Curtis & Dick Albert, ABC News with Peter Jennings and Chronicle with Mary Richardson, Peter Mehegan and Mike Barnicle. I don’t watch television these days, but the WCVB website is still my go to for news and weather. Top tier journalism! RIP Mary Richardson! Job well done!
