Rest in Peace, Harry Kalas
Harry Kalas, the voice of the Phillies for my entire life, passed away today. He lost consciousness in the broadcast booth in Washington as he was preparing for a Phillies/Nationals game, and was pronounced dead at 1:20 PM.
I am thankful that Harry got to watch the Phillies win it all in 2008, but I will miss him terribly. Whenever I heard his voice, I was an eight year old kid again on a summer Sunday afternoon, watching the game with my Dad.
My condolences to the Kalas family and to the Phillies organization. Harry, you will be deeply missed by a city that loves you.
