Dick Enberg
Dick Enberg  a Hall of Fame broadcaster known as much for  his  excited calls of "Oh my!" as the big events  he  covered during a 60-year career  has died.  He  was 82.
 Enberg 's daughter  Nicole Enberg Vaz  confirmed the death to The Associated Press. She said the family became concerned when her father didn't arrive Thursday on his flight to Boston  and he was found dead at his home in La Jolla  a San Diego neighborhood  with his bags packed.
His daughter said the family believes  Enberg  died of a heart attack but was awaiting official word.
 Enberg 's wife  Barbara  already was in Boston and was expecting his arrival.
The family "is grateful for the kind thoughts and prayers of all of Dick's countless fans and dear friends " according to a statement released by  Enberg 's attorney  Dennis Coleman. "At this time we are all still processing the significant loss  and we ask for prayers and respectful privacy in the immediate aftermath of such untimely news."
 Enberg  got  his  big break with UCLA basketball and went on to call Super Bowls  Olympics  Final Fours and Angels and Padres baseball games as well as Rams football games.
 He  retired from  his  TV job with the Padres in October 2016  capping a six-decade career punctuated with countless calls of "Oh my!" in describing big plays.  He  also was well known for  his  baseball catchphrase of "Touch 'em all!" for home runs.
" Dick  was an institution in the industry for 60 years and we were lucky enough to have  his  iconic voice behind the microphone for Padres games for nearly a decade " Padres owners Ron Fowler and Peter Seidler said in a statement.
 Enberg 's many former broadcast partners included Merlin Olsen  Al McGuire  Billy Packer  Don Drysdale and Tony Gwynn. He even worked a few games with Wooden  whom he called "The greatest man I've ever known other than my own father."
 Enberg  called Padres games for seven seasons and went into the broadcasters' wing of the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2015 as the recipient of the Ford C. Frick Award.
"There will never be another Dick Enberg " CBS Sports Chairman Sean McManus said. "As the voice of generations of fans   Dick  was a masterful storyteller  a consummate professional and a true gentleman.  He  was one of the true legends of our business."
John Ireland  the radio voice of the Los Angeles Lakers  tweeted : "If  there was a Mount Rushmore of LA Sports Announcers  Dick Enberg  is on  it  with Chick Hearn  Vin Scully and Bob Miller. Rams  Angels  UCLA  NBC  and so much more. Was the first famous announcer I ever met  and he couldn't have been nicer. Definition of a gentleman."
 Enberg  won 13 Sports Emmy Awards and a Lifetime Achievement Emmy. He received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame  and UCLA named its Media Center in Pauley Pavilion after  Enberg  this year.
At halftime of a UCLA game in February  former Bruins stars Bill Walton and Jamaal Wilkes presented  Enberg  with a No. 8 jersey  signifying the number of championships he called.
"That's not going to happen again "  Enberg  said before the game. "Who was looking over  me ? To be able to come in and ride the Wooden Wave."
"Kindest  most proactive possible treatment of newcomers in this business  for the length of his career " broadcaster Keith Olbermann said of  Enberg  on Twitter . "What a terrible loss."
