Andy Rooney Dies, Only Weeks After Retiring [VIDEO]

Curmudgeonly commentator Andy Rooney passed away Friday evening, after retiring just a few weeks ago. Rooney's last "60 Minutes" broadcast was October 2nd. He was 92.

"It's a sad day at '60 Minutes' and for everybody here at CBS News," said Jeff Fager, chairman of CBS News and the executive producer of '60 Minutes.'" It's hard to imagine not having Andy around. He loved his life and he lived it on his own terms. We will miss him very much."
