"For one more time, 'Good Morning America.' I'm Diane Sawyer," the 63-year-old said at the top of the show, warning it would be a teary program.
"I'm going to try to take the advice of that immortal philosopher, Dr. Seuss, who says, 'Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.' And this morning I am beaming at all of you. My heart is smiling. And the privilege of sharing my mornings with all of you has been more than I can say," Sawyer said.
Sawyer and co-anchor Robin Roberts also welcomed new co-anchor George Stephanopoulos, who will begin on Monday.
