When asked how Los Angeles should remember the longtime announcer, Jarrín had this to say:
"He was the finest sports broadcaster who ever lived. No question about it. Sometimes when people are all around you asking for autographs, asking for pictures and he has a great patience, especially children. He would stop, he would lift a child, he would take pictures. He enjoyed doing that. That was the most important thing -- that he enjoyed doing that. He was a very special person."
