I was shocked to hear of Tim Russert's Death. My hubsand and I have been huge fans of Tim Russert and tried not miss his a single show. Tim was a "renaissance news man", soft spoken, elegant, always well prepared and insightful. When ever people in my life die suddenly it always makes me stop and remember to not to take life for granted. So this father's day, please slow down and take time out to enjoy your father, grandfather, or just your family.

Tim Russert-Thank you for all your amazing work-You will be sorely missed.

In a statement detailing autopsy results, Dr. Michael Newman said his famous patient had passed a stress test on April 29 and had even worked out on a treadmill the morning of his death.

"Russert, age 58, was known to have asymptomatic coronary
artery disease (atherosclerosis), which resulted in hardening of his coronary arteries," Newman said. "The autopsy revealed an enlarged heart and significant
atherosclerosis of the left anterior descending coronary artery with (a) fresh clot which caused a heart attack resulting in a fatal ventricular arrhythmia."
