Paul Harvey has passed
I am a huge Paul Harvey fan....his "Rest of the Story" books were staples in my life, i've read them cover to cover over and over and over and over again....Today we lost a man that's been a part of my life as long as I've been alive....my grandparents turned me on to him when I was very very little...and he's always been there.

That's very sad. I feel as if I've lost a favorite uncle.
He used to sucker me in when he read the commercials. I thought he was telling another story, when it was just an intro to an ad. He had a great delivery. RIP, Mr. Harvey, you will be missed. |
When I was a young child, mom and dad always kept a radio on in the kitchen while preparing breakfast, lunch and dinner. And this radio seemed to be on all day Sunday. I paid little attention to it until Paul Harvey came on.
His delivery of the news was unique... Paaaage TWO. But by far the most entertaining part of his radio broadcasts was The Rest of the Story. When I got out of high school, I took a job 50 miles away and on the commute home every day, I knew what time to switch the radio from the usual FM rock station to a small AM news station to catch The Rest of the Story. Rush and all the other blowhards on radio today could take a lesson from Mr. Harvey. |
I also grew up listening to him. He'll be missed greatly!
