“I was greatly saddened to learn of Tim Russert’s untimely death.  Tim was a warm and gracious family man with a great zest for life and an unsurpassed passion for his work.  His rise from working-class roots to become a well-respected leader in political journalism is an inspiration to many.  Tim asked the tough questions the right way and was the best in the business at keeping his interview subjects honest.  My thoughts are with his family.”
