I believe that Tim Russert finished his work here on earth, and God has called him home.
God waited until his son Luke finished his college education, and Dad would have passed on life values to him at this age

God wanted him, so there was no warning or time for Tim to stay

The world loved him
but God loves him best

I can not say how sorry I’m about the passing of Tim Russert. Every Sunday morning we would turn Channel 5 on and liisten to Tim as we got ready to go to mass. We NEVER listened to anything but Tim Russert. I really don’t know if I have any interest in watching the show. He made Meet the Press.

It is so sad, someone who was such an asset to loss his life at such a young age. My heart goes out to both Luke and Maureen in the lost of someone so loved by them.

Thoughts and Prayers are with you.

I as many others loved Tim Russert! If he was on everything stopped in my home to listen to what he had to say. I respected him, appreciated him, & enjoyed him as did my husband. I felt his loss not only as a journalist but as a truly incredible human being. He had so much to give. Listening to his son Luke on Today show this morning I felt a huge comfort. Because it’s so obvious he didn’t completely leave us. Luke simply is blessed with all his father was & I see Tim in everything about him. Tim was obviously proud of Luke but looking down on him from heaven I cannot believe he isn’t the most proud. What an honor along with Maureen to have raised such a gifted person. God be with his family.
