Shannon C Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 I loved Paul Harvey, such an unmistakable voice. What a radio icon--I learned a lot from him. Reminds me of listening to AM radio with my grandpa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elise1mds Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 :sad: I remember listening to him at my grandmother's house when I was tiny. Such a calming voice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen sn Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 nt Awwwww. I love his voice. I always felt smarter having listened to him. Did you know that Levi's denim was an accident. Someone stole the canvas and so he had to make do with denim. Turns out it was his lucky break. What a comforting voice. "And now you know the rest of the story." I can hear it in my head. We're listening to the country station in the car.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mommaduck Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Okay, you can name many other "famous" people and I wouldn't cry...but Paul Harvey?! I loved listening to him. He told wonderful stories and made so many good points. And yes, his voice. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jennifer in MI Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 My FIL worked with him at ABC radio in the 70s. Here's what he wrote (Steven is my dh): It seems like yesterday that Mr. Harvey juggled then 7 year old Steven Kelly and 5 year old Deborah on his knee while preparing for one of his daily noon time broadcasts. Steven is now pastor of St John's Episcopal Church in Detroit and Deborah a successful writer and marketing executive. It was a great experience to have worked with him in my Chicago ABC Radio Network sales days . In even the most difficult times for radio sales , advertisers were still lining up for 52 week sponsorships of Paul Harvey News. What broadcast sales executive would not have loved that. And, what a thrill to share a reception area with Paul Harvey. Imagine running into Senators, Governors, religious leaders and Corporate Board Chairmen day to day waiting to meet with Mr. Harvey. The memory of the day I struck up a casual conversation with Billy Graham still lingers like it was yesterday. Now that Mr. Harvey has joined his beloved wife Angel in passing in a great career has come to an end. Lets all keep Mr. Harvey and his family in our prayers in gratitude for what they shared with us all over his 70 years of broadcasting.
