Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?
Matthew 6:27
WASHINGTON — Tim Russert was big wherever he went — in politics, in television, in writing — and even in a suit.
Russert, the hard-hitting but big-hearted moderator of NBC’s “Meet the Press,” died at work Friday at age 58 of a reported heart attack.
Russert, who also was in charge of NBC News’ Washington bureau, is survived by his wife, Maureen Orth, and his son, Luke.
A noticeably shaken Tom Brokaw made the announcement live from New York on the NBC network, saying his colleague collapsed and died early Friday afternoon in the network’s bureau in Washington.
After driving herself to and from dialysis today, Irene was busy around the house enjoying the cool, foggy weather and anticipating visits from Jocelyn & JoAnna this Father’s Day weekend. Irene’s nausea remained at a low roar and the fatigue shadowed her all day.
The sudden and tragic death of accomplished journalist Tim Russert reminds us that our lives are transitory and that we’re merely sojourners on this planet. It accentuates that we are to PLAN as if we’re going to live forever but LIVE as if it’s our last day …. with JOY and PURPOSE serving Him who breathes life into us.
Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?
