I’m sadden at the sudden news about the death of Tim Russert. I didn’t know him personally, but I was a fan of his work and of the man.
I’m not a politician, journalist, or the like. I am just a person who was captivated with everything he had to say about anything. He always seem to have a sparkle in his eye and passion in his voice and you had to choice but to want to believe anything he said.
I’m sure his family, friends, and colleagues are without words. From my understanding, he was a devout Catholic, active father, good husband, and a moral man of high standards.
When I came home today to share the news with my wife, she was just as saddened. She probably listens to the news less than I do, but still knows Tim Russert and his contributions to America. He was an excellent interviewer and understood and explained politics in a way that we could understand.
He will be missed. . .
