Fred Foy, 'Lone Ranger' announcer, has died at age 89
by Ken Tucker
.Fred Foy, whose booming voice announced the arrival of The Lone Ranger TV series in the 1950s, has died. He was 89; he died of natural causes, said a representative for his family. If you were a kid in the ’50s, chances are just hearing Foy’s stirring, “Hi-Yo, Silver! A fiery horse with the speed of light, a cloud of dust and a hearty ‘Hi-yo Silver — The Lone Ranger!’” can give you goosebumps.
I didn't recognize the name but when I read who he was I could hear the voice in my head. By name, he certainly isn't trifectia worthy but that famous introduction puts him in the IN camp for me.
