Sid Collins , the " Voice of the 500 " , famed announcer of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Racing Network gave a moving , impromptu eulogy at the close of the "500" radio broadcast in 1964 for driver Eddie Sachs who had lost his life that day.

It has been widely reported that some 30,000 or more people had written requests to Sid to ask for a copy of that eulogy. I assume he complied and mailed it out.

Would anyone have a copy or know of a possible archive containing the words spoken by Sid on that day ?

Life-long followers of the "500" will know exactly what I am speaking of.
Thanks !
