Farewell to the King. There’s no easy way to say goodbye to a legend, to a hero, but thousands flocked to Latrobe, Pa., on Tuesday to try.
“He was an everyday man, everyone’s hero,” said Jack Nicklaus, who delivered an emotional speech at Arnold Palmer’s memorial service.
Perhaps the true measure of Palmer’s greatness was his reach across generations, along with Nicklaus current PGA Tour players Phil Mickelson, Davis Love III, Rickie Fowler and Bubba Watson attended the service, as well as thousands of fans of all ages.
