I will miss the rest of the story.

That was the rest of the story.

I loved to listen to Paul Harvey. When I was about 8 or 9, my mom had a car that would only get AM radio, and every day after work when she was driving us home we would listen to "The Rest of the Story" And depending on traffic, sometimes we would get home before it ended. So we would just sit in the car and wait for him to finish.
Later when I was working in the kitchen at a restaurant, I would listen to the news from Paul.
He will be missed.

And now you know the rest of the story!

It sound like his son will carry on for him, but it still will not be the same. My news radio station did an awsome tribute tonight. It brought tears to my eyes. I love Paul Harvey. When I was young and would work on my uncle's farm, breakfast and lunch were not over until Paul Harvery had said good day! In a day of sensational new, he will be missed for telling good news stories and telling them well!

This news sucked. I liked that duder.

There are some radio personalities that absolutely should never be allowed to die, and they include Paul Harvey, Click and Clack, and Garrison Keillor.

I don't know if he was the most famous Tulsan, but he would definitely be on the Mount Rushmore of Tulsans.

I love Paul Harvey.

That said, I have to share the slightest bit of irreverent humor. The Onion did a man-on-the-street question asking its infamous three passersby what thy thought about Paul Harvey's passing. The best reply?

"Are the doctors sure it's not just an exceptionally long pause in his delivery?"

He had a marvelous voice for radio- very soothing and intelligent. I enjoyed listening to his stories, and often quoted his catch line.
