Jim Vance was one of the longest running news anchors in the Washington D.C. area and perhaps anywhere else. He worked for 45 years at WRC TV. In that time he won 19 local Emmy Awards, was named "Washingtonian of the Year" by Washingtonian Magazine, and inducted into the National Black Journalist Hall of Fame.
Having lived in the area before I have many memories of watching him deliver the news. His employer must of felt the same way.

Here is a blooper, where he can't stop laughing..
He was a great anchorman and the DC Area lost a local television icon. May he rest in peace.
