Just watched the BBC Look North tribute on iPlayer, met him in Cawthorne when he was on the 3 legged charity walk with @Hudsonweather He looked absolutely exhausted, but had time for everyone. Lovely tribute tonight from @AmyGarciauk and the team #RIPHarryGration

Brilliant work by @BBCLookNorth tonight - dedicating the full show to Harry, a special friend to so many of us. He is today's big story and you did him proud. Not a dry eye in #Yorkshire as we heard him sign-off. You are his legacy #RIPHarryGration Gx
From all of us here at BBC Look North, thank you Harry ❀️ Watch the full programme back here: bbc.in/3OJFekV

Lovely, lovely fella. Had such a laugh with him watching the champions league 2022 final on my phone whilst he dashed about hosting a charity event raising 1000’s. Will be missed by so many. #HarryGration #RIPHarry #RIPHarryGration

#RIPHarryGration #RIPHarry I am so sorry to hear of the death of Harry Gration from #BBCLookNorth I watched him all throughout my childhood and he was a superb journalist and news presenter. A true legend of regional television, beloved by Lincolnshire and Yorkshire and beyond!

The fact that RIP Harry is still trending for a second day shows how loved Harry Gration was. A true one of a kind presenter who made programmes so much better. He will be missed so much. ❀️ #RIPHarry #RIPHarryGration #HarryGration

This is so true. There is a bond between viewers and regional tv presenters that is very special. They're one of us, they're ours... and they are a constant presence for decades, sharing our little bit of the world. #RIPHarryGration
As I've said many times before, there's something so powerful about the connection between longstanding presenters and regional TV audiences. Harry Gration fits that bill. Millions of viewers in Yorkshire will have grown up watching him. Sad news. RIP Harry.

Please pass on my condolences to all the Look North family. I never met Harry but felt that I knew him owing to his personality that shone through- a warm, caring and lovely man #ripharrygration 😒

I was only talking about Harry yesterday and then last night heard the very sad news. I was lucky to work with him several times. A genuinely lovely man and a true pro. #RIPHarryGration

@BBCLookNorth There are times in life you stop. Shocked and sadness encloses. I wept. Been a part of my life for so long, growing up and flicking that button, made you feel he was in the room with you. A true Yorkshire Man who shall always be loved. #RIPHarryGration X

So sad to hear of the sudden passing of iconic Yorkshireman Harry Gration, who represented Yorkshire on TV for nearly 40 years. Warm, charming and as kind as they come, he was an all round bobby dazzler. Everyone should be more like Harry ❀ #RIPHarry #RIPHarryGration
Our much loved friend and colleague Harry Gration died suddenly today. We are absolutely heartbroken to give you this news. Tonight our hearts go out to Harry's wife Helen, their children and all of Harry's family and friends. bbc.in/3HPQpWZ

So sad to hear this news. What a lovely & well respected man he was #RIPHarryGration
I don't think any broadcasters build a bond with their audience as strong as the ones built by long serving presenters of regional news. They are part of the furniture when you're at home & part of home when you're not. Harry Gration embodied this. Thank you & good night.

Another legend on his way to Almighty. I met him couple of times. A true gentleman and professional. #RIPHarryGration
