News: Longtime WKYC cameraman retires

WKYC says goodbye this evening to longtime photographer, Joe Butano.

Joe spent 38 years as part of the WKYC family shooting many of the stories you see on "Channel 3 News" each and every day.

He has hazarded through every kind of weather - and shot video for every type of news story imagineable - fires, accidents, shootings. You name it, Joe shot it.

Still at a youthful age of 71, "Cowboy Joe" as we fondly call him plans to saddle up, take it easy and spend some time traveling with his wife.

We all wish you the best, Joe! Life at Channel 3 just won't be the same.
