“Ana was a force of nature. I keep thinking about how at times, I’d make a self-deprecating joke and she’d snap, ‘Hey! Don’t talk about my friend like that!’ Her genuine care for everyone around her will be missed,” he continued.

Orsini was remembered as someone “with bottomless empathy who always stood up for ‘the little guy.’ ” The anchor had a reputation for mentoring younger coworkers.

Orsini was passionate about rescuing animals and that she was a big listener of true crime podcasts, according to the network. She was a “peanut-butter-M&M-loving” and “platform-Ugg-wearing” anchor who was always a “ray of sunshine, even at 4:00 in the morning.”
