He seemed like a nice fair journalist, one on whom others could model themselves and their careers.

Being a Buffalonian I know Tim Russert as a kindred spirit, and my Mom I met him once or twice, and heard him speak at St. Bonnie's.

My uncle went to HS at Canisus with him in Buffalo.

I read his book about his dad a few years ago. I bought it primarily because it was about a South Buffalonian.

Let this serve as a reminder to all of us to cherish each moment we have with our loved ones, and take care of your health.

Go Buffalo Bills
