Katherine Creag is being honored.

NBC’s Today paid tribute on Friday morning (February 12) to the late WNBC New York affiliate reporter who died suddenly and unexpectedly Wednesday (February 10) at age 47.

Anchor Craig Melvin remembered her as “a great mom, a great friend and she was a doggone good reporter.”

Savannah Guthrie said, “All of us around here are truly heartbroken. Kat was part of our extended family here at NBC, and a beloved fixture on our local station WNBC.”

WNBC anchor Darlene Rodriguez, visiting the Today set, said: “Kat was a light. She had this very special spirit and energy about her. She came into your space, you were just immediately uplifted because no matter what, she was always in a good mood.”

Our thoughts are with Katherine Creag‘s loved ones at this difficult time.
