We have truly lost an icon, not only for Philly sports but for sports in general. In Harry, Philly gave the country a genuine treasure and giant in the field of broadcasting. Very sad, and he will be missed tremendously. But perhaps we can take some solace knowing that he can now join his dear friend and ex-colleague, Whitey Ashburn, in that broadcast booth in the sky. I can almost hear the two of them now:<BR/>Whitey: "The Angel Gabriel looks runnerish, Harry..."<BR/>HK: "And that thunderbolt is outta here!!"<BR/>RIP, Harry, and hopefully the Fightin's will dedicate this season to you.Dr. Gnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1400096075233822963.post-6893766284555081632009-04-13T14:53:00.000-04:002009-04-13T14:53:00.000-04:00He will be missed, loved listening to the Phils on...He will be missed, loved listening to the Phils on the radio because Harry did the whole game.Eleanor the Dognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1400096075233822963.post-73255244936955116302009-04-13T14:49:00.000-04:002009-04-13T14:49:00.000-04:00His final call, I will remember, because I was jus...His final call, I will remember, because I was just at my parents for Easter, eating dinner, watching the golf. But in the other room, the Phillies game was on the tv, and I could hear something good happened as I started to hear Harry Kalas call the home run for Matt Stairs.Mr. Greennoreply@blogger.com
