I grew up in Michigan, and the sound of Harwell's voice blasting through on the 50,000 watt "Great Voice of the Great Lakes" is a dear memory.

I still remember wondering, "how does he know that the guy who caught that ball is from Ypsilanti?"

I used to be able to listen to his voice come from across the fields as it was played on the fender-mounted radios on those green tractors bailing hay.

A true Icon and Great.
