"You Are Not Alone" indeed...but I don't mean to make light of his passing or anyone else's.

His music shall live on forever.

John Callaway, the iconic Chicago newsman who was a fixture on WTTW's "Chicago Tonight" since its inception, died of a heart attack Tuesday in Racine, Wis., the Chicago Tribune reports.

Callaway felt faint in a store and died around 6:30 p.m., his wife, Sandra Callaway, told the paper. He was 72.

From New Martinsville, W.Va., Callaway, a college dropout, began his career with the late, legendary City News Bureau. He moved to CBS in 1957, where he distinguished himself as a radio and TV reporter and helped pioneer the all-news radio format as a CBS executive, according to a 1999 Tribune interview.

Callaway joined WTTW in 1974 and was the debut host of its first nightly news program, "Chicago Tonight."
