Accoutability

When we moved into our house in San Diego, our realtor and good friend gave us the book Wisdom of our Fathers. Prior to that I was always a Tim Russert fan, but all the more after reading the book. Any man who takes his faith and his role as a father so seriously is a hero in my eyes. He was the type of guy that seemed like a genuine man of integrity. He held himself accountable and those around him accountable and that always seemed to come through whether he was talking to a politician or talking about his own father or son.

Mike is surprised that I am glued to the television, but I just can't believe that he is gone. I really admired him so much.

(Why are my last few posts only about death?)

I am surprised because I didn't know that Victoria liked him so much.

I will miss him too, though I haven't seen his shows lately (used to watch Meet the Press more often in the past).

He was a great man who is going to be missed by all, as evidenced by all the public outpouring on his behalf.
