Beloved WFTV Reporter Angela Jacobs Mourned On Social Media

Angela Jacobs worked for WFTV Channel 9 but she passed away on Tuesday this week. The attractive and professional journalist is mourned by many people as she had a wide career. Starting out nine years ago with Eyewitness News, she became a well-known face. Even before that, she was loved and respected when she worked in Tamba Bay. Often she reported on sports news.  

Angela Jacobs Died From Cancer

Way too many famous faces have passed from cancer. Celebrity Big Brother winner, Sarah Harding passed away from breast cancer last year.  Well, the same disease took the life of a very talented woman. A lot of people probably recall seeing the vivacious reporter, host, and anchor from Wisconsin through to Orlando, FL. Certainly,  she became a familiar face at the NCAA. Now, her family has said goodbye to her.

Angela Jacobs might not have been very young, but she still had a lot of energy and it seems cruel when people pass away before their life is fully complete. So, across social media, many people either mourn her because they saw her on the TV, or they worked with her. The first news that arrived came from Nancy Alvarez, a friend who lives in Florida. Later, she couldn’t help but revisit her death again.
