Was the Leafs PA announcer for 38 years, and worked more than 1500 straight games at one point. Was replaced by Andy Frost in 1999.
Died at the age of 86.

Loved this guy. Just announced the announcements and wasn't yelling, screaming, and playing whooping recordings at fans to rile them up. A classic, different era.
RIP
