When I was a child in the 1970s, I used to help my dad by baling hay during the summer. I always carried a small radio with me…
At midday, I would stop working for lunch. I would park the tractor in the shade of a tree, have my meal, and listen to Paul Harvey. Listening to his voice reminds me of happy summers when my parents, brother, grandmothers, aunts, and uncles were all alive and healthy. I feel sad when I think about that time.
From 1952 to 2008, Paul Harvey’s voice was heard by up to 24 million people every week. The “Paul Harvey News” was broadcast on 1,200 radio stations, 400 American Forces Network stations, and 300 newspapers. Many people know him best for his famous radio show segment called “The Rest of the Story.”
