Plans are being made to honor to the life of newsman TIM RUSSERT this week. A wake will be held on Tuesday, and MSNBC will broadcast a public memorial service on Wednesday.
Mourners will have a chance to say their goodbyes to Russert during the event, which will be held Tuesday afternoon at his son LUKE's alma mater, St. Albans School in Washington, D.C. A private funeral and burial will be held on Wednesday, followed by a private memorial service that will be broadcast live on MSNBC from the Kennedy Center at 4 p.m. ET.
Russert, 58, passed away suddenly on Friday, June 13.
