Detroit Baseball Legend Passes Into History

On Tuesday, May 4, 2010, Detroit’s baseball broadcasting legend Ernie Harwell died of cancer at age 92. Harwell was widely known as an engaging and warm person. Listeners said his Tiger baseball broadcast voice displayed kindness and welcome as did few others. Our founder, Mike Palazzolo, met Ernie a few years ago and had his picture taken with him.

In Tracee Hamilton’s sports column in the Washington Post today, she said Ernie Harwell “never met a stranger. He was just as kind as he sounded on the radio. There were no sides to Ernie Harwell. What you heard was what you got. And what you heard was that voice, that praline voice, smooth and sweet, homey and warm.”

Rest In Peace, Ernie Harwell. You will be missed.

Safety King (www.safetyking.com) was a founding member of NADCA and is the only remaining charter member of the association. NADCA was the first and is still the largest professional organization of air duct cleaners in the world. It was NADCA that brought the world the first and most comprehensive published, public standard for air duct cleaning and restoration, the ACR Standard (Assessment, Cleaning and Restoration of HVAC systems).

“The King” Meets Jack Canfield

Michael S. Palazzolo, founder of Safety King, and several friends were guests at a speaking engagement featuring Jack Canfield. Jack is the co-author of the incredibly successful “Chicken Soup for the Soul” series and is featured in the movie “The Secret.”

Mike and Jack Canfield

As one of Michael’s personal heroes and a like-minded “positive thinker,” Jack teaches the Laws of Attraction and the power that they have in our lives. Those who know Mike have heard him enthusiastically spreading this message and how it has changed his life for the past twenty-five years. The presentation, as expected, was wonderful!

Michael invites you to contact him about realizing the Power of Attraction in your life! mike@ductpro.com
