Prayers and condolences.

Mr. Harwell was and shall remain an absolute gem of a human.

His voice calling games was wonderful as we all know. i’m struck with memories of enjoying Earnie’s soothing voice eminate from a John Deere tractor fender radio across the hazy summer fields of Michigan.

As the last foul tip, a great human from Detroit is taking that ball home.

God Bless you, Earnie!!! May God continue to bless your family.

Mario and Rod are OK as far as broadcasting televised games goes but Ernie was an artist. With Ernie you could sit in the shade listening to the radio and actually see the game and the whole time he told stories and history from his long lifetime.

They just don’t make them like that anymore.
