Legendary CBS newscaster Walter Cronkite, who many referred to as "Uncle Walt," has passed away, CBS News reports. He was 92 years old.

CBS Vice President Linda Mason says Cronkite passed away on Friday evening, surrounded by family in his New York home. His cause of death was cerebral vascular disease, his former chief of staff Marlene Adler tells the Associated Press.

As the CBS anchorman for almost 20 years, Cronkite’s dependability and everyman demeanor comforted audiences through such lows as the President Kennedy assassination and cheered them in such highs as America landing on the moon.
