KTLA
There’s been an outpouring of love in recent days following the untimely death of KTLA entertainment reporter Sam Rubin on Friday, and this morning Rubin’s son Colby added his voice to the chorus.
Colby joined the KTLA 5 Morning News with a four-minute tribute to his father delivered directly to the camera. He recalls his father’s support for his theatrical ambitions, their trips to Disneyland, their scout meetings together, and even shared time during visits to his physiotherapist.
“I idolized you. You are and always will be my hero,” he said. “I never had to tell you that, and I’m so sorry, Dad.”
Colby also shared on screen a text message exchange with his father in which he told him that he couldn’t do a particular theater performance because someone criticized him. “My confidence has just been destroyed,” Colby wrote.
Rubin replied: “Ignore the noise. You’ll get bad reviews for every show… Most kids probably feel the same way… but everyone will dig deep and do a great job. You have excellent genes. You have all the gifts. Respect your own talent.
