"I had no idea it would become what it did, I don't think anybody did. Suddenly, AOL took off... I remember standing in line at CompUSA and seeing the stacks of AOL CDs and thinking, 'my voice is on every one of those, and nobody has a clue.'"
"Any former AOL user can recognize his voice. More than 30 years ago, Edwards recorded four iconic lines for what was then a little-known company called America Online."
"Frank Macek, senior broadcast director at WKYC, emphasized Edwards' varied skills, stating he was a jack-of-all-trades from camera operator to graphics, and was generous with his knowledge."
"His wife, Karen, volunteered her husband for a voice recording in 1989 after overhearing discussions about adding a voice to the upcoming AOL software, leading to an iconic digital legacy."
