New
Year's Eve in Pasadena - Rose Parade with the one and only Legendary,
Mr. Stan Chambers of KTLA news, he is one of the nicest people that I've
ever met in my life. — with Adrienne, William and Stan Chambers.
Happy Stan Chamber’s Day and Happy Belated
Birthday Mr. Chambers! I have been fortunate to have known Mr. Chambers
since grade school. Not only is he a top notch journalist who was on
our local news station KTLA for 63 years, he is one of the
nicest men in the world. What I really admired about Mr. Chambers is
that is he an incredible family man who has a fabulous family. He and
his first wife were always so wonderful to me. My parents had passed
away when I was very young and by the time I was 5, my amazing
Grandmother raised me. But when I was growing up, particularly in the
elementary School that I went to, everyone had both parents and usually
numerous siblings, and if I recall correctly the Chambers held the
record on # of siblings even though I know they had some competition.
Although I had a much older brother, I pretty much grew up as an only
child. When I would come over to babysit, or for an event they would
put on for our class, Mr. and Mrs. Chambers always made me feel so
welcome, so cared for and really interested in what I had to say. Mrs.
Chambers would give me wonderful advice. I just adored both of them and
their family. Through the years, Mr. Chambers and I would continue to
see each other out and about throughout the City when he was reporting
or at events. He took time to counsel me when I was thinking about
pursuing a career in broadcasting as I went to talk to him in his KTLA
office. Then when I asked him to speak at my organization the Burbank
Jaycees, when I was on the Board many years ago, as hectic as he was, he
didn’t hesitate and said yes. He was one of the most interesting and
popular guest speakers we ever had, it was a packed house with standing
room only. I know he also continues to do so much for the community and
guides students in their journeys. So on Stan Chambers Day, I want to
say thank you to Mr. Chambers for not only making my life better, but
also for all his dedication to the City of Los Angeles through his
excellence in journalism and his service to the community making Los
Angeles a better place!
