Posted by Tim Cable The Sunshine of Our Lives
She shined here for nearly six years! But, alas, we have to bid a fond farewell to our treasured friend and co-worker, Selena “Sunshine” Wiles. What a distinct pleasure it’s been sharing the 5:00 and 5:30 anchor desk with her! She’s an important member of the Cable Country family and we’ll miss her so much!
Here’s a video tribute to Sunshine.
