Colleagues Remember Dick Enberg In Ceremony At Petco Park

Late broadcaster Dick Enberg yesterday was "fondly remembered by former broadcasting partners, athletes and friends on a drizzly morning at Petco Park" during a celebration of life service. The two "prevalent themes were baseball, which was Enberg’s first love, and his fondness for summing up big moments with his call of 'Oh, my!'" Among the speakers at the event were Enberg's former basketball broadcasting partner Billy Packer, Pro Football HOFer Dan Fouts and Ann Meyers Drysdale, the wife of late Baseball HOFer Don Drysdale, who called Angels games with Enberg (AP, 3/10).

Speakers at the event where those who "knew him best," and their words shaped the "person beyond the persona." Videos from celebrities Enberg "had impacted" during his career were shown, including from Bill Walton, Mary Carillo, Jim Nantz, Pete Sampras and Dan Dierdorf (SAN DIEGO UNION-TRIBUNE, 3/11).
