ABC 13'S LAURA WHITLEY LEAVES THE NEWS BUSINESS!

FROM DEADLINES TO DIAPERS: SHE HAS HER PRIORITIES!











Dozens of friends and colleagues showed up for Laura Whitley's going away Friday night. It was held at El Tiempo restaurant. Laura, who works for KTRK as a reporter, has decided she wants to spend more time at home with her children. Despite the heavy rain in southwest Houston Laura still had a packed house. Some of the people attending: Marlon (Laura's husband), Chris Stipes, Miya Shay, Andy Cerota, James Campbell, Carolyn Campbell, Eric James, Ted Bowen, Bernard Francis and a host of others!

    She is such a beautiful woman, I hope she stays in Houston and decides to come back to the news business someday.

  6. I wish Layra Whitley luck in her future endeavors, it's just a shame that KTRK Channel 13 is losing GREAT talent, first Stephanie Guadian, then Mark Garay and now this.
