    Paul Harvey passed away today.

    Growing up with only AM radio at home and in the cars - he was the voice of the news forever in many peoples lives.

    My world is just a little bit smaller now ........ :cry:

    Man, I'm only 25 and have listened to him my entire life.

    I really enjoyed hearing him on the radio

    I listened to him everyday at lunch time sitting in my work van, I knew he didnt sound well the last few times I heard him. Nobody had a voice as captavating as him.

    And now the rest of the story. RIP Paul

    He was the man to listen to. He also had a book called "The rest of the story" that carried a lot of his best stories. You always sat there wondering what the end was. :)

    I always enjoyed his stories, wasn't his son doing them for awhile..maybe 2 or 3 years ago? He sounds almost the same.
