But I always really liked him - he seemed very intelligent, level-headed, fair, and kind. I was sad to hear of his death.

We never have enough people like that in our lives. Marty, you say he was a “kind, interesting, respectable man” — I think that says it all. We never have enough people like that in our lives.

Why? Right now I do not know. I am a stay at home ( mostly) mother of a 19 month old and nurse by profession. My husband came home today and said, " My favorite political TV host died today and I could not imagine who and he said Tim Russert" with a tear in his eyes and I remembered always having to watch him on Sundays with my husband. I am sad!! He appeared to me to be a kind, interesting , respectable man. My husband sure thought so. I am moved by husbands emotions and my turest deepest prayers and thoughts go out to his family. He added something to our lives here in Buda, Tx. He will be missed. I am profoundly moved by the death of Tim Russert. Why? Right now I do not know.
