A master storyteller, gone

Radio commentator Paul Harvey dead at 90

I loved Paul Harvey's 'The Rest of the Story' from the time I first heard it as a child. It was often thought-provoking and he was wonderful in his use of a phrase, a pregnant pause, always keeping you waiting for his story's 'punchline'. He was a consummate storyteller, and those are few and far between these days. His distinctive voice was comfortable and inviting.
