I know this is not the place but I feel the urge to mention that we should place our prayers and thoughts to the family and industry of media towards Tim Russert. He will be missed. I personally knew Tim and he was a very fine individual and I will never forget him. He loved his family, his faith, Buffalo team, and I will always remember the times I spent with him. He will be missed.

 

I read about it about an hour ago. My parents were shocked as well. He was way too young. We'll keep in our thoughts.

 

He was a really nice man.

 

Thank you. I'm shocked and in tears. I loved this man. He was so kind.

 

Again, I apologize for bring this into a Mercedes forum but this guy was the finest example of a human being I've ever met.

 

Sorry to hear of your loss, trumpet....

Don't follow politics/political media closely, but from all accts Tim sounded to be a rather decent gentleman....and much admired by those in both parties....

 

Great post Trumpet1. I didn't know him but learned a lot from him over the years. Looked forward to watching him every Sunday for at least the past decade. He sat 2 rows in front of me at Wizards games. I met him once in 2000, the day my children were born. He was in Georgetown Univ Hospital for a Church service. He was very friendly and very genuine.

 

Sorry for your loss, I cant believe he is gone. My thoughts are with his family in this time of such unexpected tragedy.

 

I heard about it yesterday afternoon and I was shock.

RIP Tim
