NOLA station GM remembers Nancy Parker as ‘a joy to work with’

WVUE vice president and general manager Tim Ingram released a statement after one of the station’s longtime anchors died in a plane crash Friday, Aug. 16, 2019.

“Nancy was absolutely a joy to work with each and every day”, the statement begins.

“Today we lost a wonderful journalist and remarkable friend, the New Orleans television community lost a true treasure, but beyond that, her family lost a wife, a mother and daughter. Our thoughts and prayers are with them,” Ingram continues.

“Nancy was a part of the Fox 8 family for the last 23 years, she put her heart and soul into her work, covering thousands of stories and touching countless lives. She made a difference in the lives of those she reported on. She will be sorely missed, and her absence creates a void that cannot be filled,” the statement ends.
