After almost 40 years on the air, longtime news anchor Larry Stogner is stepping down from his post.


Stogner's heartbreaking message on ABC affiliate WTVD in Raleigh, North Carolina, comes after he was diagnosed with ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease. In the video, above, Stogner says, "There is no cure. My career in broadcast journalism is coming to an end."


Now that Stogner is retiring, he plans on taking a vacation with his wife. He also promised to return in two weeks for one last, "more personal," goodbye message.
