My phone hasn't stopped ringing since the news broke. Youtube and some cold ones tonight. His voice/calls were second to none.

RIP Harry.
I know exactly where you are coming from on the fond memories.
Some of my fondest memories growing up were hot summer nights with the sounds of Ernie Harwell coming from the kitchen where my Mom would have the Tigers game on her am radio. She always kept it loud enough so we could hear it throughout the house or through the open windows as we played in the yard. Ernie's signature call when there was a called thrid strike, "He stood there like a house by the side of the road."
Everytime I hear his voice, it brings me back.
