Paul Harvey

I knew he was old and that his son was doing some of or most of the shows now. I remember my dad always use to listen to him in the car when we were younger. He had a very long career and it sounds like a long life as well doing what he enjoyed doing. Thanks for the update.

I haven't heard the news, and I can't find it on the Internet anywhere. But I hate that. I've listened to him for years. But I had noticed lately his son and someone else had been doing his show on the radio. My husband just told me he heard him on the radio Thursday and his speech was very slurred, like he had a stroke.

Aunt Kate was the one to introduce my folks and me to Paul Harvey, and we thought he was really great. My dad was an especially big fan of his. One of my friends kidded that Daddy went through withdrawal symptoms if he didn't get his Paul Harvey fix of the day! LOL The factory whistle announcing lunch was located on one of the Delco Remy plants close to where Aunt Kate, Uncle Don, and Denise (my cousin) lived. Denise was just learning to talk when she began saying, "Noon!" everytime that whistle blew. Instead of saying, "Noon!" she, eventually, got around to saying "Paul Harvey!" because he came on at noon. I really liked his inverted storyline style and adopted it as my own many times when I wanted the punchline of whatever I was relating to drive everything home right at the last. He'll definitely be missed!!!

This is very sad news, very, very sad news, as he was such a wonderful, inspirational gentleman, and many times gave me cause for very deep thought! I worked for many years in the radio business, and 3 out of the 5 stations I worked at carried Paul Harvey snippets! How I grieve, the world has lost a messiah! His son is carrying on his works, and it is wonderful, too, with lots of inspiration! If you like I can PM you the link; some of his inspirational videos, and scripts, I save to get me thru some of the down times! Phew! And thanks!

When I was growing up, my mom would tune in to the Paul Harvey at 12 pm on the radio and then they streamlined his show on the internet if you missed it on the radio. We would listen to all the stories he had. I would love it when he says: Hello America, This is Paul Harvey, stand by for news. I am truly going to miss hearing his voice on the radio. RIP Paul Harvey. He will truly be missed.

Wow! Thanks for the update. Hadn't heard this yet. If it's true we have certainly lost a legend. "Now for the rest of the story..." The family used to listen to him years ago. I know about five or ten years ago I was in my dad's vehicle and Paul Harvey came on. I had honestly thought he had retired???

Thats sad, I have listened to him, his programs were always interesting. He always had "the rest of the story", the best part.

Awwwwwww, what a shame! He was really good to listen to. Always informative, sometimes inspiring, and always brought out some interesting things to his air time. I had no idea he was 90! I used to always listen to him whenever he was on the radio, especially when I was out driving for work.
