It’s going to be strange without having Gary around. He was one of the most humble guys in broadcast media in the City of Brotherly Love :(

So with the Inky and DN dying, is this the future of obituaries?

Def sad, aside from HK, he was Philly sports. 2 in one year for us… very sad.

So sad. For nearly my entire life, I had known only Harry Kalas calling Phils games and Gary Papa giving me the highlights if I missed the games. It seems he fought courageously to the end. This weekend 6abc was having a charity walk for Prostate Cancer Awareness timed with Father’s Day.
