60 Minutes every Sunday Night –
That’s how much you meant to us
We will always miss you. You went from being cute, to
being nice to being sexy and finally to being hip. We
will always love the many hours that we spent with you.
We hope that you will rest in peace knowing that you
always told the truth and reported on the stories that
meant the most to America.
God be with his family. I know how proud that you must
be to have known him on a personal basis. May God be
with you and bring you strength, peace and happiness in
the years to come… he’d want it that way.
What a wonderful man!
How do you know that it doesn’t mean someone that is angry?
