Death of Tim Russert: Bob Schieffer — “I Just Loved Tim and I Will Miss Him More Than I Can Say”

Statement from CBS’ Bob Schieffer:

Tim was the best of our profession. He asked the best questions and then he listened for the answer. We became very close friends over the years. He delighted in scooping me and I felt the same way when I scooped him. When you slipped one past ol’ Russert, you felt as though you had hit a home run off the best pitcher in the league. I just loved Tim and I will miss him more than I can say, and my heart goes out to his son, Luke, and his wife, Maureen.
