The sudden death of a popular Arizona news anchor at the age of 28 has left many in shock.
In Tucson, Arizona, a sudden death occurred due to a brain aneurysm, affecting 28-year-old Ana Orsini.
A young anchor from a TV news station in Tucson, Arizona, has passed away suddenly.
Last week, 28-year-old Ana Orsini passed away suddenly from a brain aneurysm, as announced by KOLD 13 News.
Dan Marries, an evening anchor at KOLD 13 News, wrote on Facebook about Ana Orsini: "Ana Orsini, you were one in a trillion; wise beyond your years, full of practical insight, smart, compassionate, quick-witted, and possessed a contagious love for animals."
"We express our deepest sympathies to the Orsini family during this difficult time. As a parent, I can only imagine the immense pain and anguish they must be feeling after the sudden, unexpected, and tragic loss of Ana. Ana's positive influence on those around her will be felt for years to come. She will be deeply missed."
"Tears and no words. Still struggling to find the right words," Allie Potter, a weather forecaster at KOLD with Orsini, wrote in a tribute.
Our KOLD news team lost a cherished member last week. Ana Orsini was our anchor, morning team leader, and a dear friend to many at the station, as co-anchor Cory Kowitz shared in a post on X.
Since June 2023, Orsini has been a part of 13 News.
"Ana was remembered as a person with boundless empathy who always stood up for the underdog, according to a tribute video released by the station. She was known for being a kind and supportive mentor to her new and young coworkers, and for taking them under her wing in all the newsrooms where she worked."
Ana, who has since been removed from the station's website, said in her biography that there are many places she once called "home," but she always knew Arizona was where she wanted to end up.
Orsini, who was born and raised in Denver, Colorado, began her college career at the University of Arizona before transferring to Texas A&M and earning a degree in journalism with double minors in communication and sports management after a semester.
On her Facebook page, Orsini posted a photo of her twin sisters in UCLA cheer uniforms and referred to her home as a "house divided."
My little sisters, both twins, went to UCLA while my parents attended the University of Arizona. As a result, I will be the tiebreaker this weekend. Who do you think I will be rooting for?
In Lubbock, Texas, Orsini started her TV career as an anchor/reporter after graduation. She later worked as a morning and midday anchor in Medford, Oregon, for three years.
Her family wants Orsini to be remembered as a bright and sunny person, as stated by the staff at 13 News.
Carsyn Currier, a co-anchor of Orsini's, wrote on Instagram: "Knowing Ana was to love her."
Ana made everyone feel special, heard, and understood. Waking up in the middle of the night to go to work is always challenging, but knowing I was going to work with her made it that much easier.
