Tim Russert, a long-time host of “Meet the Press” had a heart attack at age 58 on Friday, June 13, 2008. He had a long list of accomplishments after his name; he interviewed many guests, actors, comedians, politicians and many others. Just name it; he did it! In October of 2006, Russert had visited the University of Mary Washington in Fredericksburg, Virginia where he described himself and was described as being a meticulous person. It all seems that this is what he learned best from his father about perseverance, responsibility, and discipline: to go as far as you can to do the job to the best of your ability. Nobody was more prepared; nobody will ever fill his chair as host of NBC and their Washington bureau chief. He accomplished his job from beginning to end and never missed out on a point he was trying to get across. His father had taught him a good lesson that you can succeed in most anything you want, if you only put your mind to it.
