TIM RUSSERT Meet the Press FRIENDS reflect 6-15-08 5 of 6

TIM RUSSERT'S chair was empty on the first show of Meet the Press since he died suddenly on Friday, June 15, 2008.

Tom Brokaw and coworkers from across the broadcasting community remember Tim Russert. Especially touching is the fact that this is Father's Day and Tim was all about dads as he wrote in his book "Big Russ and Me."

I'm from Western New York...loved the days he would pull out the football or the Sabres jersey.

Such a sad loss. He is our favorite son. We will miss him!

What a cast of friends. You can tell what kind of a person someone is by who they hang around. This says a lot about who Tim was.
