SAN ANTONIO – Monday marks the end of an era at KSAT, as some of our admired and trusted journalists officially head into retirement.

It’s the conclusion of a long and successful career for each of them and they are deserving of all the accolades and celebrations.

The retirees have been celebrated with parties, gifts and cards from all of us who worked alongside them for many years. The retiring journalists gave their on-air farewells last week. Click on the names below to watch those clips:
