Sad news to report about a member of the Houston media.

 Vikki Cummings Taylor Rosenkranz, better known as Vikki Taylor to television viewers, has died after a battle with cancer.

In recent years, Taylor filled in for Don Nelson on KTRK abc13's morning traffic reports. Before that, she was Westwood One's airborne traffic reporter for 104.1 KRBE and KTRK for 14 years according to her LinkedIn profile.

Husband Robert Rosenkranz announced the sad news on Facebook:

It was a very sad day yesterday..
I lost my best friend and my soul mate Vikki...
She lost her battle a little after 10pm last night.
She was a fighter and would never give up..till the very end.
It was a great honor and privileged to be with her for 9 years.
Nine of the very best years of my life..
To everyone that met Vikki knew just what a special person she was.
To all those that never had this honor you were truly robbed of a very incredible experience...
Her ear to ear smile was contagious..
One friend said "If Vikki walked thru an empty field , flowers would pop up in her footsteps".. I agree 100%
I will miss her every single day till the day I die..
She is now an Angel and I know that she is hard at work helping others...
Thank you to all that sent their prayers and healing intentions..
The universe must have needed her more..
