The Good Old Days

I loved reading "Big Russ And Me" What a wonderful relationship Tim Russert had with his father. He was fortunate to have grown up back when life was simple. Big Russ was quite a father and I am sure is very proud of his son, Tim. I am sure Tim's entire family is quite proud of him...Luke is so lucky to have had him for a father.I miss watching Tim on Meet The Press, I never missed a Sunday morning show...It is not the same without him!

The loss of a Great Man

After listening to the week of tributes to Tim Russert we had to purchase the book. The book is a wonderful tribute to his Father and all the Fathers that instilled the core value in the 40's and 50's born children. After my 63 years on this earth and raising 2 girls, I finally got it. Tim's Father said it all in one sentense. You will always be loved but your never entitled. No matter what age you are, your always going to have to work on gaining the respect and admiration from people you have known for years, as well as the people you meet today and want to have their friendship in the future. this book is a great lesson for young and old. Tim Russert was an honest and truely Great person. He will be missed but his wisdom in this book will be cherrished.

EXCELLANT ROLE MODEL

This was a wonderful story to follow. What a guy, and what a huge loss. He was a wonderful role model, and I loved the lightness and humor of his story.

Brilliant

Anyone who grew up in the 50's era must read this book. It takes us through our own history as well as the history of our country. Tim Russert is everyone's brother, and the passion he felt for his life and his country, driven by his father's wisdom will cause any reader to reflect on his own journey. Absolutely wonderful!!!

Joy of Living

The Russert story is a vivid example of how 'family' is everything, and why financial wealth is much less important in the 'pursuit of happiness.' This book should be read by young people especially, regardless of religious belief, to see how love, ethics, a sense of humor, and personal responsibility matter most in life.
